Bobsleigh IBSF World Cup 2020 - 2021

The season has gotten underway :cheer: 

 

Mariama Jamanka and Vanessa Mark lead the way after the first run, closely followed by Katrin Beierl and Jennifer Odasanya. Sadly my favourite Laura Nolte crashed in the first run, she was well on her way to at least attack Jamanka's time :( 

 

Run two coming up!

Jamanka wins it, Beierl keeps the distance the same in run two, that's promising for the season (I know there's German tracks to go though :p). Kalicki in third.

 

Since Dutch women in bobsled are long gone, we're claiming Odasanya's second place (she's born in the Netherlands and apparently still spends a lot of time here, unless the boyfriend mentioned in an article isn't her boyfriend anymore) :p

Doesn’t help that the second and third biggest women’s programs are sitting this one out.

Yeah, it's hard to have big start list without N. America, China and Russia.

First of all, that's women's side of this sport, not entirely sport. Second, there are much higher requirments to compete in Bobsleigh WC than NTL (for example only three countries can have three teams). And despite this we had athletes from 13 countries in women's bobs last season. In women's NTL WC it was 16. Not so big difference. I also would like to see NTL at olympics but seriously, what's with this bobs criticism about?

    • I have reported this again and they said it should be fixed now, please let me know if you are still facing issues.
    • more countries added to the list of US ban    you can't travel to USA if you are from : burkina faso , niger , Laos , South sudan , mali , sierra leon ...
    • Yes, but what I mean for Serbia is that everything changed there (unfortunately for us ). 2022 was an unbelievable mess, that's not the case anymore now with just one athlete who has really gone for it and made it, so I'm 99% sure they'll accept it this time.   Who knows though. Plus there's always 1-2 bigger countries here or there who reject something, but it's not gonna be 16 places I'm afraid   
    • Doping by Event Type When we look at which events have the most doping cases, a few categories stand out from recent sanction records: Long Distance (3,000m and above): 32% of cases Sprints (400m or less): 24% of cases Jumps: 12% of cases Javelin: 8% of cases Middle Distance (800m–1,500m): 8% of cases Hammer: 8% of cases Steeplechase (3,000m SC): 4% of cases
    • From 2020 to 2025    These three countries alone make up almost two-thirds (61.9%) of all current doping violations in athletics worldwide. It’s worth noting that 199 of World Athletics’ 214 member federations have no athletes on the current ban list. This means the problem is really concentrated in a small number of places. Here’s a look at the top countries: Rank Country Total Violations Percentage Region 1 Kenya 119 24.74% Africa 2 India 108 22.45% Asia 3 Russia 73 15.18% Europe 4 China 26 5.40% Asia 5 Turkey 20 4.16% Europe 6 Italy 18 3.74% Europe 7 South Africa 18 3.74% Africa 8 Ukraine 17 3.53% Europe 9 United States 16 3.33% North America 10 Morocco 15 3.12% Africa
    • Here's my calculations of the quotas. I believe you are correct about Italy having 3 quotas in men's singles.   Men's Singles   3 Quotas: 2 Quotas: 1 Quota:   data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAPABAP///wAAACH5BAEKAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAICRAEAOw==   Women's Singles   3 Quotas: 2 Quotas: 1 Quota:     Men's Doubles   2 Quotas: 1 Quota:     Women's Doubles   1 Quota:

    • Mykolas and Rūta are athletes of the year,no surprises there.
