a big, painful flop so far...

just couldn't keep up with the pace in the transition between juniors and seniors, like many Italians usually do

 

let's see if we can waste also Matilde Cenci's talent 😤

Italians used to be the masters of sprint tactics, but since they took the 25-minute track stands out of it, they have struggled.

Lavreysen is more muscular than his rivals, in my opinion. Secondly, I'm curious if Lavreysen, with his physique, could win a flat road race?

Not a chance.  Not even a criterium.  Theo Vos was the only guy who could do it, probably ever.  The French had a sprint World Champ, Gregory Bauge, who could not even ride 200m.

The fact that there isn't even a velodrome in Italy doesn't help.

Point race and elimination race should be in olympic program for me. Great events. And here two beautiful moments gold for Italy (Perfect end of career for Viviani) and Mexico. And after that huge achievement for Netherland in men's sprint. This guy is phenomenal. Interesting World Champs. 

:MEX stole that points race like it was an exhibit in the Louvre.  :roflmao:

Yeah you can start the kids on the old concrete tracks, but for World class athletes you need a World Class track for sure.

:JPN also having a very good Champs.  Used to be that the keirin was their only event & even then they struggled with the different rules.

    • All Milano-Cortina Olympians are to be find in the first posts of the respective threads just like in this one.
    • Almost sadder than a university hall of residence
    • Big shock as  beat the all-conquering  Men's Team Sprint team in the Heats!
    • sure! in every Italian bedroom you normally have every kind of table, chairs, furniture, tv screen  to me, this really look an unfinished room, you normally don't see such a sad place even when you buy a new house 
    • Canoe Sprint There is a now a cap of 5 athletes per gender in the kayak events (down from 6 in 2024). The World Championships has been replaced by the Olympic Qualification Rankings.   K2 lost 2 boat quotas while K4 has gained 1 boat quota. Quota distribution is quite complicated as it usually is for canoe sprint. They also force nations to compete in a minimum number of events based on the number of athletes qualified; 2 and 3 athletes per boat class must compete in 2 events, 4 must compete in all 3 events and 5 must compete in all 3 events and have two entries in the K1 event.
    • Wrestling will have a completely new format, I do not like the changes. ranking isn't really a good idea in this sport, this will force wrestlers to compete in so many events to collect points. which is not good for their health. specially with the current UWW ranking points distribution system which is plain stupid   they are also gifting 18 quotas to very weak countries by that last qualification event. but I understand their point of view. can't wait to see lots of Russian wrestlers compete for weak countries for that 1 available quota.
    • Canoe Slalom Quotas from men's/women's K1 have been moved to men's/women's KX1. K1 will now have 14 quotas while KX1 will have 10 quotas. C1 remains at 17 quotas. Athletes may participate in other events up to a maximum of 2 athletes per NOC.   The World Championship qualifier has been dropped in favour of the Olympic Qualification Rankings (7 K1, 10 C1, 3 KX1), afterwards you have the Continental Qualifiers (1 per boat) and then a new Global Qualifier (2 per boat).   There were a few changes regarding ways to ensure an athlete can only obtain 1 quota. The biggest being at each stage the boat priority is K1 > KX1 > C1 for the rankings and KX1 > K1 > C1 for the continental/global qualifiers. This basically means if the same athlete qualifiers in multiple boats then the quota will be given to the kayak over canoe.    
    • I'll post significant changes periodically. I'll start with the recently added/updated documents.   Archery The addition of mixed compound (12M & 12W) forced a reduction on the recurve side. The mixed compound quotas are distributed as follows   Host - 1 World Championships - 3 Continental Games - 5 World Ranking List - 2 Final Qualifier - 1   To compensate the team events will now only have 8 nations. 2 quotas were removed from the World Ranking List and 2 were removed from the Final Qualifier.   Individual recurve and mixed recurve distribution is the same
