Athletics Qualification to Tokyo 2020 Summer Olympic Games

My prediction is that GBR will get around 45-50 places via the automatic standard (not counting relays and those who qualify via world rankings)

I'd also predict Germany to get around the same number.

GB has a clear advantag in mens track events, it will be hard for Germany to make up for that in field events.

I think 50 athletes achieving the standard would be very good for Germany, the best case would be around 60 athletes.

Note - The 200m at the Boston Games was not eligible for Olympic qualification times as it was run on a straight 200m not a curve.

Zharnel Hughes ran 20,00, Kyle Greaux 20.09

Here are the ten largest athletic teams so far qualified to the Olympics (I took the top three athletes for nations with more than 3 eligible athletes)

 

1.   :USA United States - 64

2.   :KEN Kenya - 28

3.   :CHN China - 24

3.   :JAM Jamaica - 24

5.   :GER Germany - 20

6.   :ETH Ethiopia - 18

6.   :JPN Japan - 18

8.   :GBR Great Britain - 17

9.   :POL Poland - 16

10. :CAN Canada - 12

10. :RUS Russia - 12

10. :ESP Spain - 12

 

Unsurprisingly the United States is dominating the field. Kenya is second thanks to being dominant in long distance events, but could struggle to maintain its position as nations that are generally good in all events start to catch up.

Kenya has started to branch a little though. They have Julius Yego in Javelin, and of memory serves they have some decent athletes in the 400m Hurdles and 200m

True, but I feel Jamaica has done a better job at going from specialists to more general. Regardless both nations should be among the 10 largest teams.

    • Weightlifting formula is more or less similar to 2020 which was considered terrible by everybody!    this is a tough sport, you can't be in your best shape for too many events. there will be risks of serious injuries this way. with these rules you need 5 good results to qualify. if you bomb out in an event to score a zero you are out of the Olympics unless you replace it with another event. which means most of these poor guys have to participate in 7-8 events (and not just 5) to make up for possible bomb outs.    most importantly if you get injured anytime during this period (almost 2 years) you are out of the Olympics! that's how Sohrab Moradi missed the Tokyo Olympics despite breaking the WR during the qualification period. you can miss the Olympics in 2028 if you get injured late 2026 !  Karlos Nasar couldn't win the Olympic title if we had these rules in 2024   I understand 2024 qualification formula wasn't great either, it had its own flaws but this one is much worse for threatening athletes' health.

Although the agenda has not been published yet, there shouldn’t be any major items over these two days, apart from the election of a member of the IOC Executive Board. This will be the eighth time the session is held in Italy, the last one being during the Turin 2006 Olympic Games.
