14.38.34 (3.51.14 at 400m, 7.46.39 at 800m and 11.42.69 at 1200m the main splits)...you can find all the daily recaps of the Italian Nationals in the 2019 general swimming thread (where @intoronto is also posting the results of the Canadian trials)...

If anyone wants to follow the Canadian trials, SwimSwam has good live recaps every night.

 

However this wouldn’t be a good thread for it since, if it’s anything like the last three times, Swimming Canada requires athletes to meet the FINA standard at the Olympic Trials. Prior times only matter if you get added for a relay or you get some sort of exemption (very rare). 

 

Edit: this has apparently changed, though it will be at the discretion of Swimming Canada whether or not to nominate athletes who haven’t achieved the A stamdard during Olympic trials. Not sure how likely they are to so it in practice.

Here is an upload on what I was able to follow in terms of Olympic Qualification. As usual, this is pure theory and just for fun:

 

- a total of 182 quotas have already been achieved, considering 1 quota per athlete. If we look for multiple quotas, this number reaches 255.

- among the athletes with multiple quotas, Hosszu has 4, Quadarella, Detti Flickinger   Sjostrom 3. Many have 2 (this data include partial data coming from Russian and Australian Championships that are currently in progress)

- in terms of quotas earned per nation, the current podium us with 27, 25 and 23 quotas respectively. However, and especially are increasingly sharply with good results in their championships, and will host from today to sunday another meet of TYR series, meaning that new quotas will be likely to be achieved;

- in terms of absolute number of standards reached, that is considering multiple quotas per athlete, the podium standings is exactly the same, with peaking it with 36 quotas, followed by 34 for and 31 for

- a total of 29 nations have already obtained at least 1 quota by achieving 1 minimum A standard. Among them, it is worth underlining the presence of in women's 1500m and in women's 100m fly;

- among men's events, breastroke appears as the one in which it is easier to achieve an A standard, with both events counting 16 athletes qualified each;

- Looking at women's events, instead, at the moment the most crowded event appears to be women's 1500m free, with 17 athletes qualified (and, surprisingly, without any swimmer already qualified).

- looking at B standards achieved, a special mention goes to which reached 2 B standards in 200m free and 200m medley (both in men's events) and (200m fly in men's event);

- as a personal feeling, I think other quotas could have been earned at Kazakistan national championships but I was not able to find any result. I also missed last day in Netanya Cup in Israel (or, better, I really cannot understand their language).

A lot of results of British championships are slightly superior to A standard. I would have bet on the opposite
