Wait, so the qualifying is on another run entirely than the race? :lol: 

 

Bring this in F1, qualifying for the Italian GP on Monza and the race at Imola :d 

yes, basically they had 2 separate rankings for those who did race on the red course and those who did race on the blue course...

 

the top 8 in each of those 2 rankings would qualify for the knockout stage (crossing format: 1st red vs 8th blue and so on, with the faster of the 2 skiers of each pairing entitled to choose the course in the next stage)...

Well the curious thing is, not that 8 qualified from each course. The curious thing is, that the Final will be on a complete different course than the qualifying.

oh shit...

 

well, that is disappointing again..however, the positive thing is that this is not an olympic event, so it will not hurt so much I hope, but pity obviously, it was definitely a medal opportunity to grab today.

 

Since there no stream nor anything, anyone know what exactly happened ? I mean if it was a crash ? and if yes, did she looks injured ? Have no information anywhere here, just that she DNF and thus will not compete afternoon.

 

Thanks

It isn’t an Olympic event? Won’t there be 11 events in alpine skiing at the Olympics? What will be the 5th individual event?

The fact that 3 German men finished top 8 clearly is all you need to know to judge this event.

 

On the other hand it is nice to see that 17 yo Emma Aicher did quite well today. Would be nice to see a talented German in the slalom for a change.

Good to see :GBR Alex Tilley qualified.  As a rule, the shorter the course, the less chance she skis into the barriers.  :clap:

If she has the same material as your ski/snowboard cross athletes, she should easily win a medal.

I think we will see her tomorrow in the team event.

Thanks, I thought that the combined got eliminated? Sad to hear that this event will still be Olympic. I think 4 individual events are enough for alpine skiing, but at the same time alpine skiing definitely should have more Events than speed skating/shorttrack/freestyle skiing, so you would probably have to reduce the number of events there as well.

Sure, why not ...

Germany doesn’t have a medal chance anyways and apart from Dürr, all German girls are on an equally low level, so you might as well give her a shot.

    • 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)
