Yes, it says Chocho couldn't make it to the ceremony to recieve the flag and Preciado is flagbearer but says nothing about the actual opening ceremony.

I was going to say the same lol Though I think it sort of implies sth like "if you aren't for this ceremony then no thanks you won't be flagbearer". Also in the video Preciado seems happy as if he knows he is going to be in the ceremony too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It kinda makes you think something happened behind curtains, but I agree it likely means Preciado is the flagbearer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
