What happened Elisabeth Seitz? She disappeared from live scoring?

 

Looks like she skipped floor. And when a gymnast skips an apparatus they are removing them from all-around leaderboard.

Germany is two points ahead compared to the result at last years World Championships.

 

True, but Scheder and Tratz have underperformed in the first two apparatus; I know that they will close in their strongest apparatus, but I believe this team to be the best of the competition

Well hopefully. Uneven bars is always a bit tricky, of course.

 

Three of our best gymnasts are currently injured, so if the team does a solid competition and qualifies, I'm satisfied. So far I am.

So, Germany needs 53.099 on uneven bars to overtake Australia (and qualify for Rio).

That explains it all... it seems that after vault, this team is 99.99% in Rio. Congrats

Ok, we need exactly 53,1 points at UB fo finish ahead of Australia and therefore to qualify. This is an average of 13,26. Normally it shouldn't be a problem. I just hope they show a solid performance.

Can someone remind me, if Germany qualify a team, it means that only the bottom 2 unqualified nations will go home without any quota?

Yes, then there will be 30 quotas up for grabs and there are 32 nations if I counted correctly.
