How do they expect the Olympics to be held when even some qualificatoin events can't go forward?

yes, I saw that...

 

however, it's live on TV (Teleticino...it's free to watch all around the world, in case you have some time to spend)...so, not a great issue for most people (actually, it's even better that there won't be certain idiots on the stands)...

 

I guess it's gonna hurt more HC Lugano, as they are fighting for the last playoffs spot against SC Bern (they are tied in points with 2 games to be played...1 of the 2 teams will earn a playoffs berth, the other would evetually play the relegation round, where Ambrì have already been stuck for quite some time...they basically have nothing to ask to these last 2 RS games)...

Horrible with more and more qualifier canceled

After 5 of 7 stages, the UAE Tour (cycling) has been cancelled after two Italians tested positive and, that's rather new, not for doping.

I'm going to post it here also:

 

I'm not sure if FIE will try to reallocated it again?

I think they're running out of options...

 

and I don't think they can still keep the date, as 1 week notice is really a short period...

 

let's see if later today or tomorrow they release an official statement...

 

however, in may there are still world cup stages on schedule, so they could use them to replace this weekend's even if they are outside the original OQP...

The Zonal Qualifiers are in April, so it would not be possible.
