That I do not know....

One of them just posted that he achieved the standard so I guess it counts. He was already qualified for two other events in Tokyo, so that's probably why they didn't make a big deal out of it.

Woohoo! :cheer: Gold, NR & OQ!

 

Silver for the men’s 4x100F!. First Euro medal in this race since 1962. NR & OQ!

The women's gold was the first in this event since 1927 and the men's silver only the second in the event following the 1962 medal to which you referred.

ouch! that's painful...being the 3rd fastest overall and being eliminated because the top 2 are from the same Nation...:facepalm:

Pilato being the losing side of the Italian internal fight in the women's 100m Breaststroke...

Swimming will never get rid of this completely absurd rule of allowing more than two competitors per country per event to start the heats, but only two to go through to the next round, right? Again, now we've got the women's 100m breaststroke where this dumb rule means we will miss literally one of the three/four best athletes in the semis because of having the same flag as two others who were faster.

    • Linn Gestblom (previously Persson) Will miss all season. Not recovered after surgery.
    • Greece and Portugal also have winter sports centres - but of course these are not homologated routes for World Cup competitions I have never been to Albania personally, so I don't know the country at all. I have been in southern Croatia, though, and there are mountains there but you definitely can't ski there (I was there in the summer, but it's also impossible in the winter). World cup taking place there only in Zagreb.    In general the case of Colturi and Kostelic is completely different: Colturi has no ties to Albania and Janica Kostelic was Croatian and didn't left their country even though at the beginning of her carrier (and also her brother Ivica) her father had to pay for everything and the federation's support was zero. This only changed later. I imagine that the Kostelic family had offers from other countries (Austria, Switzerland, Italy?) to compete for them, which were much richer (at the beginning of the 21st century Croatia was a very poor country and devastated by war). All the more respect for them because they were true Croatian patriots until the end. I can imagine the Colturi family in a similar situation... Her mother would probably negotiate with half of Alpine Europe for Lara to compete for them Which of course doesn't change the fact that the Italian federation completely gave a shit in this situation. They let such talent go in a situation where they hasn`t a single female athlete on the podium of the World Cup in slalom for a dozen or so years. In the giant slalom it's not much better either, only there the older athletes cloud the picture: Brignone and Bassino. However, behind these two there is absolutely nothing...
    • Atalanta is probably playing the most beautiful football in Europe right now: spectacular and effective. It's nice to watch and they don't have to spend a lot of money for it.   Inter is playing very economically. It's not impressive but it's consistently collecting points. It's also the only team in the Champions League that hasn't conceded a goal this season.   Milan played very poorly yesterday but they won. They have 9 points and are close to qualifying for the play-offs.
