France is quickly turning into one of those countries where they only care if they have a chance at winning a medal, completely ignoring that athletes typically don't go from unknown to world champs overnight.

yes, it's really respectful for the riders, hope we can qualify the team at the European championships.

Scandal in the French federation. Despite puting the maximum number of names in the nominative entries, the French federation eventually decided not to send dressage team at all! Nominated riders are quite angry.

The Barbançon sisters (Morgan was a Olympian in London) change alliegance from Spain to France cause they have an easier way of making the team  there and now they don't even get to compete.

 

Karma?

My thoughts exactly. :d


And even funnier thing is that Morgan would have quite possibly made the Spanish team this time...

:GER Germany has finally announced its dressage team...

 

Sonke Rothenberger (Cosmo)

Dorothee Schneider (Sammy Davis Jr.)

Jessica von Bredow-Werndl (TSF Dalera)

Isabell Werth (Bella Rose)

Reserve: Helen Langehanenberg (Damsey)

 

German selectors have lost their mind apparently. :facepalm: Langehanenberg got robbed of her place, as she is quite clearly the 3rd best right now. Schneider should have been the reserve. Also they chose Bella Rose instead of Weihegold for Werth... Good luck with that.

The Dutch dressage coach is no longer the Dutch dressage coach, rather unfortunate moment. There won't be a new coach as of yet, private coaches and the technical director will take over for the WEG.

BIG NEWS. Double individual Olympic champion :GER Michael Jung is out after his horse sustained a minor injury.


Jung therefore will not be on the German championship team for the first time since... Beijing 2008. :( He won an individual medal at every Europeans/Worlds/Olympics since 2009...

    • I still shocks, that a country of 4-5 million inhabitants? can be a powerhouse in almost every winter sport + handball, football (most recently with Haaland) and athletics: Ingebrigtsen, Warholm, etc. With such a small population, they can't be missing out on any major talent, surely? This must be the best training system in the world...
    • FIFA announced the stadium and time for each match   for  Iran, it will be 2 matches in LA (and not just 1) and 1 in Seattle and luckily we avoided playing in Canada. absolutely nothing against the country, but there are just too many douchebag Iranian groups in Vancouver trying to mix everything with their stupid politics. it's better to stay away from them.   that can happen in US too but less likely. playing in LA is more like playing at home, at least I hope so. 2022 Qatar was a disaster from our point of view, hopefully this one remains only about football.

    • I don't think he'll mind too much
    • But his time isn`t valid at track record.
    • Vladimir Semirunniy dropped a 12:28 in the 10000m B division, which qualifies him for the Olympics as the fastest time this season (with the big asterisk that it was done in a quad start). Must be a real relief for the Polish team given he isn't looking likely to qualify for the 10000m (or the 5000m) by ranking.   Really problematic that they rank pair start and quad start times together, but whatever.   Also, the Wikipedia page for qualification is updated through the second day.
