This article says that Colombia has formally received an invitation for the Test Event, since North Korea gave up their two quotas. This means that India gets the second invitation, I believe. Great news for Dipa!

North Korea has only one spot in the women's event, do you mean the men;s event as well?

Nope. They had two spots because they placed 17th-24th with their women's team.

Iordache has seriously injured a finger of the hand after an exercise workout at the bar . It is very complicated qualifying speech now

[thiago_simoes 1,423]

Iordache has broken one of her fingers. Romania is in deep trouble now. I don't think they will be able to qualify a full team at this point.

Who will be the favourites for the remaining team quotas?

Australia, belgium, France, Germany, South Korea, Brasil and Switzerland. It's an exiting battle

Brazil, Germany and France, for sure. Belgium has lost one of their best gymnasts, and Australia will see the return of Lauren Mitchell, so they will fight for the final team quota with Romania. 

It's insane that at this point Romania will depend on Catalina Ponor once again. And she doesn't perform on the worst apparatus for the team, Uneven Bars, so the team will have trouble reaching an acceptable score on this apparatus.

If Romania get the quota, Iordache can be selected for the Olympics?
