Finally the "under review" is gone from the event page ! No change apparently   

 

Longest Olympic triathlon ever.

OK, probably just so many false starts it could not be resolved.

 

Up to last cycling lap for the men.

Blummenfeldt wants to show his strength to Uno-X and Jayco Al-Ula, considering he wants to make a switch to pro cycling very soon. Also says he's going for the Tour de France win in 2028. I mean, one can dream I guess.

I wonder if the motorbike that was with the lead group has run into trouble, because that group hasn;t been shown since forever.

And the 50km Cross Country in 2030, why not?

Yee has this in the pocket, curious for the fight for silver and bronze.
