Whisper it quietly....possible Olympic Hoy-trick?

She is probably the bookmakers favourite in all 3 but if you break it down I'd estimate her chances right now at:

Team Sprint 50-60%

Individual Sprint 65-75%

Keirin - 25%-30%

Rounds 3 and 4 of the UEC BMX European Cup take place next weekend.

 

It is a full strength team for the :GBR men again - Quillan Isodore, Kye Whyte and Ross Cullen are all down for the men's elite and will be joined by Eddie Moore. No sign of Paddy Sharrock though - I don't think he is injured but I don't have a record of him competing since World Cup Round 4 in Brisbane. 

 

Likewise for the women, both Shriever and Hutt are scheduled to compete so there is a chance that they could do enough to overtake :COL in the Olympic rankings.

Ranking update after round 3 of European Cup. Unfortunately, today was a Class 1 event so Whyte's victory is only worth 100 UCI points whilst Cullen picks up 86 for finishing second so, whilst they have closed the gap on Switzerland, to around 450 points. 

 

Tomorrow's 4th round of European Cup is a Hors Class event so there are more points available - 200 for the victory and points awarded to the top 16 ridersso there is potential to close the gap further if the British team can hold their form. 

 

On the women's side, Shriever's absence meant that we picked up just 12 points today from Emily Hutt's 8th place. Colombia is therefore still about 400 points ahead of GB. Annoyingly, we had 2 junior riders inside the top 4 of their event but they don't count for Olympic ranking. 

 

Time is beginning to run out for GB women to get into 5th place and secure 2 riders in Paris. Including tomorrow, there are 3 rounds of the European Cup left within the qualification window, 2 rounds of the World Cup along with the continental and world championships.

Kye Whyte does the double at the European Cup, taking his second win of the weekend while Sharrock finishes 4th. Isodore was a DNS and Cullen was knocked out in the semi-finals. 

 

Emily Hutt was DNF in the semi-final of the women's under 23.

Must be good points for the lads, now with that Hors cat. Probably relatively safe now with 2, and Kye increasingly looks a real threat come Paris

 

Unfortunately the push for two on the women's side looks goosed at this point, but if Schriever is fit and on form, should be good to o for at least the podium

    • Vast majority of Americans will disagree with you. That's all that counts. I dont see many differences in so called fascism between democrats and republicans. Both were bombing any country they picked, both were ruining systems they wanted to.  I prefer reds more because they are at least honest about it. Also, i dont like what this ultraliberalism brought to our whole Earth. Whoever opposes this level of insanity will have my vote.  
    • YEC Semi-Finals are set:   Aryna Sabalenka vs Cori Gauff Barbora Krejcikova vs Zheng Qinwen   Krecikova beating Gauff in two sets means Iga Świątek was eliminated with 2-1 record. Sabalenka clinched Year-End #1 after winning the first two matches and Świątek not winning all three RR matches before already.
    • He is fascist. Even use the same narration like famous german/Austrian painter.

    • I remember a couple of years during the athletics worlds in Oregon one of the British athletes wasn’t able to enter the US due to visa issues. I feel like something similar will happen in LA, and I don’t envisage Trump succumbing to an appeal to let an unfortunate athlete in.
    • thats true. If anyone observes the US election map then he can see that Harris dominated in NorthEast states and the Eastern Coast, exactly where the big economic centres are based (New York, New Jersey, Washington, Chicago, Los Angeles, San Diego, San Francisco etc).   Also what i observe regarding politics in western europe is that Socialdemocratic/centre-left parties have become extremely pro-market and even neo-liberal and some traditional right parties have become euroscepticist and protectionist, exactly the opposite as it was in 70s-80s
    • How about this?   "2026 Winter Olympics Cancelled after USA Withdraw After US President is Banned From Italy Due To His Criminal Convictions"  
    • Yeah, Trump is very pro-Olympics. I imagine he's pretty excited that he will get to open the games   Visas for some nations have always been tough and I do imagine some qualified individuals will fail to enter the United States (regardless who is President), but the IOC will likely sweep it under the rug.
    • This is reaching the climax now. If Khelif's lawyers take this to court then they have to believe they can win the case. If the case gets quietly dropped before it goes to court you can assume they have no confidence in winning
