Androni and Gazprom have already pulled out of the upcoming Sibiu Tour, which is supposed to be one of the first somewhat decent races (there's also the Tour of Poland which won't be televised in any way since media won't be allowed, so yeah).

 

Meanwhile the Hamburg Cyclassics, moved from August to October, has now been cancelled.

If you find a way to bypass (if any) geolocation, the Tour of Poland can be watched on the Polish television website, i.e. sport.tvp.pl

If I were to find fault with it, the first races were in Poland. But the organizers have so spoiled the promotions of these races that it is better not to say than to praise that my country was the first to organize such races.

Interesting, since it was specifically mentioned no members of the media would be allowed. I wonder who films it :d

Yes, the one who went from struggling for a top-100 finish in the Tour of I believe Poland (which was normal, considering he was nothing more than average) to nearly winning the Vuelta a few weeks later :p(and later actually winning, officially)

TVP is the inseparable media patron of this race. Even when the tour for this year's edition was announced, it was done in a public television studio, so I suppose there will be coverage. I looked at the schedule of this station, there will also be reports this year. If you want this broadcast plan to you.

No, that is a separate race, which will be held for the first time :p The 67th Tour of Bulgaria starts next tuesday with Caja Rural and Delko Marseille as top teams. It took a global pandemic and stopped season to finally get Pro Con. teams :d

    • I have reported this again and they said it should be fixed now, please let me know if you are still facing issues.
    • more countries added to the list of US ban    you can't travel to USA if you are from : burkina faso , niger , Laos , South sudan , mali , sierra leon ...
    • Yes, but what I mean for Serbia is that everything changed there (unfortunately for us ). 2022 was an unbelievable mess, that's not the case anymore now with just one athlete who has really gone for it and made it, so I'm 99% sure they'll accept it this time.   Who knows though. Plus there's always 1-2 bigger countries here or there who reject something, but it's not gonna be 16 places I'm afraid   
    • Doping by Event Type When we look at which events have the most doping cases, a few categories stand out from recent sanction records: Long Distance (3,000m and above): 32% of cases Sprints (400m or less): 24% of cases Jumps: 12% of cases Javelin: 8% of cases Middle Distance (800m–1,500m): 8% of cases Hammer: 8% of cases Steeplechase (3,000m SC): 4% of cases
    • From 2020 to 2025    These three countries alone make up almost two-thirds (61.9%) of all current doping violations in athletics worldwide. It’s worth noting that 199 of World Athletics’ 214 member federations have no athletes on the current ban list. This means the problem is really concentrated in a small number of places. Here’s a look at the top countries: Rank Country Total Violations Percentage Region 1 Kenya 119 24.74% Africa 2 India 108 22.45% Asia 3 Russia 73 15.18% Europe 4 China 26 5.40% Asia 5 Turkey 20 4.16% Europe 6 Italy 18 3.74% Europe 7 South Africa 18 3.74% Africa 8 Ukraine 17 3.53% Europe 9 United States 16 3.33% North America 10 Morocco 15 3.12% Africa
    • Here's my calculations of the quotas. I believe you are correct about Italy having 3 quotas in men's singles.   Men's Singles   3 Quotas: 2 Quotas: 1 Quota:   data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAPABAP///wAAACH5BAEKAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAICRAEAOw==   Women's Singles   3 Quotas: 2 Quotas: 1 Quota:     Men's Doubles   2 Quotas: 1 Quota:     Women's Doubles   1 Quota:

    • Mykolas and Rūta are athletes of the year,no surprises there.
