Road Cycling Qualification to Tokyo 2020 Summer Olympic Games


Recommended Posts

Yeah, it's weird that they haven't updated the Olympic ranking, but they have updated the world ranking (which for this week should be the same)

They removed it because it doesn't make sense anymore...it was only an additional ranking that didn't include results before 22 October 2018. If you read the qualification document they never say "Olympic ranking" but "world ranking by nations as of 22 October 2019".

Well, World ranking will change on Monday, so it would very much make sense to keep the Olympic ranking.

Also, I can spot some inconsistencies in the World rankings. How come Austria is 14th? They were 18th in the latest Olympic rankings. Such rise is suspect at least, as they didn't get any Top 3 result last week.

 

Maybe not all races counted for Olympic rankings.

But the 22 October version of the ranking will still be there...that's why they released it today instead of Monday. Anyway it's this ranking that counts, no need to wait to see if the Olympic ranking will appear again.

In men, I understand that Luxembourg and Algeria lost their place in time trial to Japan and Iran, ¿or not?

You checked the Olympic ranking, in the previous World Ranking (13/10/2019) they were 17th. Poland was 14th in the last Olympic ranking and now it says it's 15th with +2 positions (indeed, on 13/10 we were 17th).

But from the pure public relations standpoint, it would make sense to keep the Olympic rankings page... And not expect athletes / media / stakeholders / fans to scroll through the World rankings.

 

This probably caused some confusion all over.

And there's always a possibility that they removed Olympic rankings because they realized it was different from the World rankings, even though it was not supposed to be. :p

    • It's hard to believe it was still in this calendar year      
    • In last year, we were were happy with Brignone's wins, and today we're excite that della Mea is in the top 10... It's hard to imagine a bigger fall... And Goggia should give up on the giant slalom and focus on the speed events – Vonn isn't wasting time on the giant slalom, but is training for downhill and SG. Goggia last one finished on the podium in the giant slalom in march 2018, and she has no any chance of winning an Olympic medal at the regular competition. It's a waste of time and energy to finish 8th or 9th and risk injury. And we have to accept that without Brignone, we have no chance of winning a medal in the giant slalom in Cortina, and that's it.
    • yeah, just like Anna Trocker earlier Today   I think this is the best way to blow them    they're not ready for the world cup stage yet, but we're so bad right now that our coaches are digging deep
    • Some surprises and fun results so far at this year's Worlds. Like a few minutes ago, when  Harrysson made the 1/8 with another very good performance. Now he plays Jonny Clayton, who this afternoon made a stellar performance in a tough battle with Zonneveld. I don't see an easy match for Clayton, even though on paper he would have wished such an opponent for a 1/8 before the tournament.   Also i'm delighted that my fav Gary Anderson seems to be in good form, though at his age, he is prone to sudden bad matches at any time.
