2764-OWG-2026-Final-Allocation-Quota-Places-Speed-Skating---Short-Track-1769423830-695.pdf

 

  • :CAN Canada lost a quota in the men's 1000m
  • :CHN China lost a quota in the men's 1500m
  • :DEN Denmark lost their 2nd men's quota and their women's quota (as was expected)
  • :NOR Norway lost a quota in the men's 500m
  • :KOR Korea lost a quota in the women's 500m
  • We've lost :POR Portugal :(

 

So overall, it looks like the 500m, 1000m, 1500m and Mass Start events all had to be cut down by 1 or 2 quotas to get the quota number to 164.

Due to countries registering skaters for distances they aren't going to skate, but that give them a reserve spot. Like registering a sprinter for the mass start, and then later exchanging them for a distance rider - but because the sprinter is there anyway, they can then do the 500m where they originally didn't have a quota spot for.

 

Something like that, there's a story about him being - in his words - fucked due to countries circumventing the rules like that. Tragic story.

 

.

:ITA Francesca Lollobrigida revealed in an interview why she's struggling so bad this season :cry:

 

she's got a virus (she didn't specify which one, mononucleosis might be an educated guess), debilitating her since the beginning of the season and making her think even about possible retirement before the Home Olympics

 

luckily, she didn't, but of course she's not competitive for the medals (and this hurts a lot our speedskating and our Olympics in general)

 

an extract of the interview (in Italian):

Yeah. The Danish team manager (his brother) pretty much says the same

    • Not in modern times (believe it has happened back in the 19th century). The Social Democrats were rather close in the mid-30s, but generally it's been the Social Democrats as the largest getting challenged by either Venstre (the old, liberal party) or the Conservatives (though their latest peak was in the 80s). Keep in mind that most Danish governments have been minority governments. The latest government (well, it's still the government until the new one is formed) was the first one since the early 90s and only the 5th since the Second World War.
    • Always, when I go from the high mountains- Moena to Trento at the beginning of March, I could already feel spring - green all around, olive trees etc. A nice contrast.
    • Were there times when a party had an absolute majority in your country?
