How dumb is that? Basically holding individual events while only awarding team medals. Wow.

Interestingly, this is very similar to what Evan Dunfee proposed for the new event...

What happens if somebody gets disqualified?

If one of the four gets DQed do the team get thrown out?

Do they only count the times of the quickest man and quickest woman?

Do they have penalty pit stops instead of disqualifications?

Here’s his proposal, it is different to the idea being reported, but similar in many aspects.

World Athletics is really going to do everything in their power to avoid having a relay on the road >.>

Another idiotic proposal, just with 50km instead of 35km

 

Basically is just him trying to get what he wants from Daddy Coe... wonder when Dunfee will start his little kicks tantrum

Looks like World Sailing will propose gendered 470 events as the preferred alternative to the Mixed Offshore Event. There will be a vote tomorrow to determine wether gendered kiteboard or gendered 470 events will be proposed as the preferred alternate. Both will likely be presented to the IOC as options though.
