Modern Pentathlon UIPM World Championships 2017

You've got bronze of Justinas, I guess Laura will get silver, if they start together in mixed they might get gold as they did in 2014 in Warsaw.

 

Especially since last year's UIPM Congress decided to change the value of one swimming second - it's now two points (previously three points). You can see it during qualifications - when A group starts with fencing, the classification doesn't change a lot after swimming, when group B starts with swimming the classification changes dramatically after fencing.

 

And another interesting thing - Poland with silver in team. With no athletes in TOP 15. And only 7 points of loss to golden Egypt, who had Hamad in 4th and Hamed in 6th. Koreans with only two finalist (third result taken to count from qualifications) with bronze.

 

Tomorrow my fingers crossed for Maliszewska, but I hope Földházi get something individually at last - in last few years she had many injuries and had very few chances to win something, but she is really talented (she won her Senior ECH gold before Junior WCH gold in 2013).

Unfortunately Laura don't want to start in relay, so Justinas will be competing together with Lina Batulevičiūtė. Don't have a lot of hope for Lina, although she might surprise everyone like she surprised with silver in women relay back in 2015 World Champs.

I remember that finish against Oktawia Nowacka. So maybe now it'll be a chance for a revenge ;)

It's sad that we haven't any livestreaming for equestrian...

If anyone is interessed, livescore here: http://uipm.gem-technology.com/uipm-portal/public/scroller-live/riding-results-iframe/3766/1

Seriously, they are only broadcasting combined? :facepalm: That's like only showing the running in triathlon, or 1500m in decathlon...

Two days ago I was talking with someone from UIPM (not brave enough to introduce himself with his name) who was trying to convince me that they made huge progress during last years and the proof is a partnership with Eurosport (which results in "delayed live" broadcast). I answered and wrote how big regress they made:
 

Quote

 

2011-2012 – agreement with 247.tv - full coverage of swimming, fencing (one piste shown), riding and combined event with scores live on tv (in riding current classification, in combined intermediate times and shooting range)

2013 – agreement with Russian NTV+ – fencing and swimming in highlights only, full riding and combined with live results as above

2014 – inaugaration of the new live score system on UIPM website, used also during broadcast – in 2014 no live results during competition, no shooting range live, in 2015 fencing bonus round added shooting range appeared, still no intermediate results in riding and differences during run

2016 – inauguration of UIPM TV being also resignation from YouTube – no more live chat, where fans from all over the world could talk about pentathlon (sometimes with athletes not participating this time), as it was on YouTube, riding only with few athletes

 

Yesterday they finished live before medal ceremony of teams, in live results there was no information about it.

A disaster for Annika Schleu in the riding.

 

And Laura making life extremely difficult for herself...

Well, we've seen Laura work around 80-90 second disadvantages before the last discipline, perhaps she'll show her magic again.

    • China Media Group (CMG) will broadcast all 116 gold medal events of the Milan Winter Olympics live on CCTV-1, CCTV-5, CCTV-5+ and CCTV-16. It will also use technologies such as 4K/8K ultra-high definition to enhance the viewing experience. Live broadcasts of all events will be carried out from 16:00 Beijing time to 06:00 the next day.
    • The strength of the UK is that they are 100% focused on the track, while Italy must to navigate between the track and the road: the line-up is different for practically every event, etc. Paternoster should focus 100% on the track; she won't win anything big on the road anymore. As it is, she's weak both there and there. The situation is different with Balsamo, as she's also having significant success on the road and likely earns the most money there.
    • Discovery+ in the UK have also got their schedule up now.     I notice that only thing listed as being in UHD is the Opening Ceremony though....     
    • The problem over the last few years was that no-one was able to keep pace with the big Katie Archibald turns. Looks to be sorted now.  
    • The women's top 50 is so crammed with athletes from the same five nations that it is not inconceivable they are unable to fill the full quota from the top 50, in which case a third double spot would open up between USA/BEL/GBR
    • That women's pursuit team looks brutally fast. Batter you over the head into submission brutal, perhaps not seen since the early Trott-Rowsell days The 4 minute barrier could be on borrowed time.   The two British women sprinters Finucane and Caldwell also look pretty ominous, indeed the whole women's sprint team looks in some shape and with some depth to get that result without Finucane   Work to do for the British men's teams, but they won't be unhappy either, not to mention Joe Truman's unexpected Kilo win.
    • I prefer to do mine like this guy (https://app.podiumsport.it/) does his "Projected Medals" as probability based rather than straight medal picking... all things being equal, conversion rates should be about the same and the outliers come out in the wash. Unfortunately most people just like medal picking, and think any other approach is weird  
    • So probably: Men Oceania: Americas: Africa: Asia: One of  Europe: One of Host: World Rankings: Combination of  (probably not)  and whichever countries don’t qualify from Asian Games.  Universality: ? Final Qualification Tournament: One of the above in World Rankings    and one of  (most likely) or  seem safe with two quotas. The other will be favourites if a third team gets allocated two.    Women Oceania: Europe: One of Americas:  /  if US is ineligible due to their host quota, if the host quota gets reallocated then Canada will be in contention in the rankings Africa:   Asia: One of   Host: World Rankings: Combination of  (x1?)  (x1/2)  (x1/2), whichever doesn’t qualify out of  / ,  and  ? Final Qualification Tournament: One of above.  Universality: ?    is safe with two quotas between  it’ll be tough for whoever misses out of those three.   nevermind , 
    • The rankings look likely to give two spots each in the men's side to Egypt (2nd athlete at 3) and GB (second athlete at 9). the nearest contender after that is France and both Egypt and GB have plenty of contenders after their respective number 2 but before France's umber 2   Women's side looks a bit more of a battle, with Egypt again likely to provide 2, and then a fight between USA, GBR and BEL for the other lucky double spot. That said, so dominant are the Egyptians, Americans and Brits, that failing to find all the contenders in the top 50 is entirely plausible, possibly opening a third 'double' spot.
    • I'd done my final revisions on my prediction spreadsheets.. and I'm sticking with 26 for Canada.    Take it to the bank! (But don't sign anything)
