il y a 9 minutes, Andry84 a dit :

France overtake Belgium in women pursuit but  this result didn' t change anything in substance, because being 130 behind or 130 points ahead is the same situation, who will finish ahead between France and Belgium in Berlin will go to Tokyo(and it should be France).

For men team pursuit no chance for France  even with today result.

 

thank you, i was prepared not to see the men chasing in tokyo, but i wholeheartedly hope to see the girls in tokyo

when the new rankings come out, it would be really helpful if someone who knows the intricacies of the UCI track ranking could do up a little preview of the World Championship and what possible qualification scenarios exist
 

I realize it's probably far too much work though!

i'm already on it, but you're right it's a little too much. I'll start to upload the previews next week.

 

So far the following quotas are 100% sure:

 

:AUS in men's team pursuit.

:NED in men's team sprint

:RUS in women's team sprint

 

Even if they get disqualified at this year's worlds, they couldn't drop below 8th place.

There are but  5 serious non European  Winter Olympic countries -USA, Canada.Japan, China , Sth Korea ( and the last 2 are Olympic medal obsessives who will pour millions into any event on the Olympic ptogram even if previously unknown to them )

Other countries may win medals eg Australia & NZ  but they are very sporty places who enter everything (& must compete in their summer )

So you mean that countries that care about sports, and often offer funding, do better than those that don’t. Revolutionary:yikes:

 

Kazakhstan, and Uzbekistan have won medals well (Kazakhstan with actual Kazakhs). There’s also a very good chance we could see Colombia, Argentina, or Chile win medals in the future.

in the women's team pursuit France is 9th, and 30 points behind Belgium, that they are the possibilities for France to pass Belgium and go to the games?

I have already explained 5 times, who finish better between France and Belgium in Berlin will fly to Tokyo, and in my opinion France is better with a good margin.

France more or less "just" need to end up in front of Belgium at the Worlds. Easier said than done, but not impossible.

Even if just for the Mens and Womens Madison and Omnium.

    • Earlier today, Taiwan beat the USA    Of course it's car from the best US tram but it's still a big deal for Taiwanese baseball
    • And even here we lose to France? I really don't know what's the point of organizing the Olympics if you can't make progress in practically any sport. France has the Olympics in 2030 and there they will definitely prepare 100%, just like for Paris. We can't do that. It's obvious that in ski jumping we have no chance of winning medals, but decency dictates that we should at least win here with a France like that.
    • There is no snow in Lillehammer 
    • Finally the ski jumping season begins 11 teams in the (real) mixed team competition, no Switzerland.
    • Most of our athletes are constantly bothered by something: the pressure to qualify, the miss of pressure when they have already qualified, etc. It's the same in football: at the beginning of the season they are a poor form becouse of a little played and at the end of the season they are tired. They are always looking for excuses. A real champion always plays at a high level, like Sinner, and doesn`t look for 1000 excuses for his poor performance.
    • Think it is mentally difficult for the two teams with the Olympic place guaranteed and the pressure off, whereas everyone else is absolutely playing at 110%.  I'm sure things will be better once they get to Milan. 
    • There's no point in cheating, these were terrible European Championships for us. Retronaz out of form, Constantini with a huge number of big mistakes. Only illness can excuse it... We've probably lost the last 10 matches with Switzerland... It looks like Constantini had the tournament of her life in mixed doubles in 2022 in Beijing and she will never reach this level again.
    • What good is it to us if we took 4th place and lost an important match? If Constantini was sick, I forgive her, but I'm afraid that the Italian team will not exceed a certain level. Yes, they have made progress since 2022, but they lack that one decisive step to become a class team. Here we lost all important matches with teams at our/higher level: Sui x2, Sco x2, Swe. We only won with the one we were supposed to win with. I don't believe in a medal for this team in Cortina. After 2022, it seemed that Constantini could dominate women's curling, but it didn't happen that way. After Sinner's recent successes, I opened my eyes a bit and started to demand more from our athletes, coaches, and officials. I have no intention of being satisfied with 4th place, because with this approach, you won't achieve anything great.
    • play their best, but only get 1, so  get bronze 6-4!  
    • Oh dear, once again a 50% shot from Constantini when she needed 100%.   blank the end & go into the 10th with the Hammer of Thor.
