Artistic Gymnastics FIG World Championships 2018

[Wumo 3,001]

Germany is currently 7th and South Korea is 10th in the Team Competition, so they are both out with China, GB and Brazil left I would say. 

I would say the 8 teams in the Men's Team Final will be:

Brazil scored 243 at the Pan Ams, but we had to count an abysmal score of 9.600 on the pommel horse, what is next to impossible to happen here, and Zanetti didn't compete there. The problem is that we'll rely on Arthur Nory on many events, and this is his first big competition since the 2016 Olympics, so I'm not sure about how he will react. I'd say it would be great for us to score around 246 here.

Great performance by Marco Lodadio. He scores 14.666. This could be enough to take a spot in the Rings Final.

First ever team final for the Dutch men  

[thiago_simoes 1,423]

The start list for the first day of women's qualification is out. A meager 14 gymnasts will try to reach vault finals on the first day, only 6 of which have real chances of making the final. I'm not sure how many will try to reach the finals on the second day, but I believe this could be the weakest women's vault final in years, with Biles easily winning gold even with two falls. Real chances of medals to South Korea (it would be their first ever with the women), Canada and Uzbekistan. Probably Russia too, if their gymnasts survive (podium training was dangerous and scary, but the difficulty is there).

The men's vault final, on the other hand, will be the most exciting in a long time. Virtually anyone can walk away with a medal.

Is there any doubt as to who will the prediction contest?
