Two world champions for Holland in about 20 minutes. First Lilian de Geus in Women's RSX and then Dorian van Rijsselberghe in the men's RSX. WOW!!! Both men and women still have to sail the medalrace :yikes:

And here it is.

 

Olympic quota - check

Medal - check

Gold medal - almost check

 

Incredible, even in an off-year for our sailing, our guys still pull this out despite having very limited experience in the 49er class. :bowdown:

all results have now been published on the official website, so we can take them for official...

 

3 Olympic spots for Italy and the 49er crew just missing out by finishing 1 single point behind DEN, 2 points behind SUI and 3 points behind POR (all of them qualified to Tokyo 2020)...they just haven't been lucky, to say the least...

 

and Tita/Banti finally did make up for yesterday's disaster and now they're back on top of the rankings of the Nacra 17 class before the Medal Race (which is expected to be a great show, since we have ITA 1 point ahead of AUS, then ARG 3 points from the top and DEN 6 points behind ITA...even BRA -12 points behind ITA- is not out of the Gold Medal fight yet)...

101 quotas have been divided between 33 nations.

 

:GBR qualified the whole fleet. :ITA:NED:NZL qualified six boats.

:NED qualified RSX Men, RSX Women, Finn, 49er FX and Laser Radial. That's 5 boats. Or did the Women's 470 also qualify?

3 boats is exactly what I expected from Brazil, but Nacra 17 instead of Finn was kinda unexpected.

 

Also, with both Argentina and Brazil qualified in Nacra, I think the south american spot will probably go to Uruguay.

    • I`m a traditionalist and I like alpine skiing competitions in the morning hours, illuminated by the sun In ski jumping this is practically non-existentthis in contrast the early 21st century (It's nice that at least there's Planica at the end of every season). There are also traditional competitions under artificial lights, like in Schladming or Madonna di Campiglio. There's no need to do the same thing everywhere as in ski jumping. Alpine skiing finals are rarely super exciting, because usually everything is clear and the skiers are tired from the long season. Finals were often canceled, so this year it was okay for me. If someone wanted a spectacle, that's what the Olympics Games or the World Cup in Kitzbuchel.
    • Parallel Slalom WC Winterberg     Mixed Team Gold-  Italy 2 (Aaron March/Lucia Dalmasso) Silver-  Austria 1 (Andreas Prommegger/Sabine Payer) Bronze-  Canada 1 (Arnaud Gaudet/Aurelie Moisan)   Full Results
    • Baffling scheduling again. It's like FIS want to drive people away.    It's the Finals, on paper your big conclusion to the season, yet it feels like "let's get this over with". Just compare how the ATP treat their finals with this.   Ok, you want to have the GS & SL on Tuesday/Wednesday. That's fine, i've been advocating for more mid-week starts to begin with. But why, oh why do you have them in the middle of the day, on a work week.  Why aren't you having them in the evening, in prime time, when people are off work. Make it a big special event, which people want to visit and not during the day in front of a 100 fans. It's not that hard to choose a place with some floodlights.     And even this week we don't have Champion League football, so the night is free from big competition. Perfect opportunity to have alpine skiing on TV right now, but noooo.
