After using the 2017 world cup results here to make my own predictive Pyeongchang 2018 medals table, I've done the same with the 2018 world cup reults. A bit more sophistacated this time using either a top 6/8/10 table depending of the sport/events (full detals here)

 

Golds:

 

1.   :NOR  15.5 medals

2.   :GER  11.8 medals

3.   :CAN  9.2 medals

4.   :USA  6.3 medals

5.   :FRA  6.05 medals

6.   :SUI  5.75 medals

7.   :JPN  5.65 medals

8.   :RUS  5.25 medals

9.   :AUT  4.95 medals

10. :ITA  4.6 medals

11. :KOR  3.7 medals

12. :NED  3.25 medals

13. :SWE  2.95 medals

 

 

Medals:

 

1.   :NOR  41.3medals

2.   :GER  33.75 medals

3.   :CAN  26.65 medals

4.   :USA  20.8 medals

5.   :FRA  18.05 medals

6.   :AUT  16.7 medals

7.   :SUI  16.55 medals

8.   :RUS  16.15 medals

9.   :JPN  15.4 medals

10. :ITA  15.2 medals

12. :NED  11 medals

12. :KOR  9.65 medals

13. :SWE  8.7 medals

 

 

According to this:

- Norway should easely secure the top place

- Germany and Canada should complete the podium

- Huge fight for the remaining 2 top 5 places with 7 nations competiting for them (8 even, depending of the success of the dutch speed skaters)

Today it's the-day! Less than 20 hours for the frist official training :cheer: They will be very important for know the frist news about the materials In luge :d Ah, and oc, if Italy have a little chance to qualify an athlete in ski jumping, but I guess that "NOOO!" Is the right answer

 

 

naaa, Colloredo won't have any problem to make the top 50 (actually he could even make the top 30) on the small hill

and also Alex Insam most likely will be in Saturday's "real" competition...

not so sure about Bresadola, though (and Cecon, if he starts in this individual event)...:mumble:

and on the large hill things should be even easier for our guys (always only if we talk about making the top 50 and not more than that, of course)...

    • For sure better for  one silver - I think it was Shelly Rudman, Skeleton.  Can definitely improve on that.   Still remember it as a good games, though - think it was the first time I took two weeks off work to watch a Winter Games.

    • As a Montreal Canadien fan, I am in agreement. However, he is struggling recently and is demoted to the 4th line this week. Hoping he can turn it around. 
    • I read now that Valentina Rodini will be in the new team of Tizzano + Galtarossa and Martini. I was probably in such an information bubble on Instagram that I thought that only Abbagnale was running a campaign and had a team of people around him. That's why I was surprised by his defeat + the fact that, for example, Rodini supports his rival. But as I wrote, for me the change in the general coach position is a plus. We need a new opening and a new impulse: Cattaneo had his best results in Tokyo and then he only explained that his rowers were running away abroad to the USA to study and that's why he had worse results. Ok, except that it's the same in Romania and Greece but they results are comparable or better. It's obvious that no one here will make the UK or the Netherlands, because we don't have such resources and money but I think we can repeat the Romanian results (2 gold - 3 silver in Paris) and that will be a much better result than the 2 silver in this year.
    • Abbagnale boasted that he had 80 per cent a few days before the vote (I still have the screen) and ran again as a result of a power deal. Not a great loss.   I have doubts about the new technical director though, you can't announce him during the congress, brandishing the scalp of the Abbagnale era technical staff (who then, were Crispi's men). Let's hope there are no rifts between the new staff and the athletes, it had to be handled better.
    • I was surprised by Abbagnale's defeat. I thought he was a sure of victory, since he decided to run - I read some source that he didn't know if he would start before Paris 2024. What do you think about it?
