And that is partly because men's qualification race gives lower points by default (due to different cut-off points). And where is gender equality? IOC should ban FIS quickly by their disrespect to womens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dcro 10,189 Posted February 24, 2021 #144 Share Posted February 24, 2021 I don't think so. It is probably just the editor not knowing how it works (or caring, to be honest). #banbestmen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is probably just the editor not knowing how it works (or caring, to be honest). This, probably. Look at Wikipedia for two years ago, it also shows a Q for the whole top-10, it's just some basic template Although there have been rumours about FIS making an exception due to there only being two (!) qualifiers, but I doubt it.

Well, to be fair, the number of quotas for women is still the same as for men; just less NOC's will have female representation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dcro 10,189 Posted February 24, 2021 #147 Share Posted February 24, 2021 Number of NOCs is just as important imo. Macedonia for example always has a female skier, and now suddenly they will not. They literally can't have an athlete even if one of them started winning World Cups next season, just to reiterate how bizarre the qualification system is. #banbestmen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interval starts are easier by default, while the sprints will have an added difficulty of classic technique. #banbestmen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dcro 10,189 Posted February 24, 2021 #150 Share Posted February 24, 2021 After today, NOCs qualified for men's events - 56 NOCs qualified for women's events - 33 #banbestmen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
