Had indirect contact with a journalist covering Nebelhorn.

 

She said France have officially rejected 2nd pairs spot, 5 pairs will qualify from Nebelhorn.

are holding ice dance quotas after the short dance. I'm pretty sure that Allison Reed will struggle to get Lithuanian citizenship though.   are definitely within the striking distance going into the free dance.

 

South Korea is actually guaranteed extra quota place if they fail to qualify, what is an utter nonsense. So, if they finish in top 6 here then we'll have 24 couples at the Olympics, if not then there will be 25. Either give them a host quota or not, this is just stupid!

Same journalist i spoke to about the pairs said there were only 5 places for ice dance available?

Officially it's 5, but with Laurence Fournier-Beaudry not being granted Danish citizenship (even if she marries her partner/boyfriend), then we can already count this realloction.

Fournier-Beaudry might even struggle to get citizenship for 2022...

Austria RUINING the iconic The Proclaimers hit............

I think North Korea are safe to qualify unless they have a disaster tomorrow

How cool would it be if Zoe Jones qualifes for her first Olympics at Nebelhorn Trophy. Her first senior competition was Nebelhorn Trophy in fact, in 1994...

She isn't really trying to get Danish citizenship

Alexandrovskaya/Windsor did well. If Kailani Crane grabs women's singles quota then Australia will be looking to participate in the team event.
