Not yet. And I didn't hear anything about when the schedule will be released! But normally the IHF is fast with it.

I believe it took them about a month in both 2021 and 2016

Basically any team from Group B except Argentina can defeat anyone from Groip A in quarters 

Can but Sweden and Spain (as the most likely top 2) will be favourites in their quarters.

 -  set up to be possibly the biggest clash in all team sports group stages (maybe along  -  in basket?)

Pot 1:  

Pot 2:  

Pot 3:  

Pot 4:  

Pot 5:  

Pot 6:  

 

What a weird pots ... why Norway and France not in the same pot? Clearly the two best teams in the world.

Just the standard way IHF are doing it, not considering the level of the hosts

Vermeersch doing a great ob getting in the way for any collective chase

About 10km til the 2nd of 3 5-star sections and it's still a pretty large group though several riders have tried attacking. Mons-en-Pevele seems like the next big battle!

4-riders front group after Arenberg. Philipsen with a puncture fighting to hod on. 10 riders chasing.

The chicane worked out fine, but it certainly helped that it was a pretty small front group.

Meanwhile with more than 50km to Arenberg the peloton is just about 30 riders after some echelons formed. They're just 15 seconds after the break

Breakaway group of people most known to their families have 1’37.

Most known to their families? Like a former RVV-winner?

Also Jay Vine....again. Peloton went on that downhill like crazy (for no real reason at all), even after someone in the lead group had already missed that turn a few minutes earlier...

 

Basque/Spanish TV director should be fired immediately by the way, not only keeping the live pictures there forever, but even zooming in, showing all the replays, slow motion scenes of riders who may or may not be conscious.....those utter imbeciles from the Giro d'Italia TV during Wouter Weylandt's last moments alive all over again....

 

I mean, come on. They zoomed in as far as possible on Vingegaard, who we at least saw move a bit every now and then, and also on the UAE guy who was just motionless on his back (like Weylandt that time). We as audience don't need to see that, the riders' families don't need all that on TV. Fucking idiots.

Yeah. Hadn't seen who the UAE-rider was when writing. 

Absolutely agree. They even spent time putting some semi-dramatic music on the crash. 

I understand that it's hard to be a TV director in the situation. The race was neutralized for what, almost half an hour and of course something needs to be on the screen, but it was wrong. Give us boring pictures and not this. 

It seems like Vine was injured the worst, while the Tour dream should be alive for all 3 favourites in the crash.

And meanwhile a very bad crash in Itzulia Basque Country taking down several profiles including Vingegaard, Evenepoel and Roglic. Especially Vingegaard and a couple of other riders are looking very bad.

 Wout Van Aert involved in a big crash Dwars door Vlaanderen.

Mads Pedersen was down as well. That's two of the main favourites for the next two weekends.

Jasper Stuyven to the hospital and Girmay might also very well miss the rest of the classics.

It's certainly not the most logical seedings, but it's how they do. 

First, qualified through the Worlds, 2nd through the qualification tournaments, 3rd the host and 4th through continental championships. 

Guess the theory is that qualifying through the qualification tournaments are the best after the one through the Worlds.

Got the 10km PB that I planned for today. Cut just below half a minute. Felt great but the last 2km were more mind than body. That puts me in a fine position towards my target of 1.45 on the half marathon in just below 3 months. Still a lot of work to do, but it feels great!

 has confirmed 4 crews so far:

ILCA 6: Anne-Marie Rindom

ILCA 7: Johan Schubert

49er: Daniel Nyborg/Nikolaj Buhl

49er FX: Andrea and Johanne Schmidt

Way to go, Edi!  

Really sorry, but I'll be missing this again. Quite a few things happening that has taken my time away

My schedule is filling up, but I could do Sunday night the 28th after 7pm (going to women's skateboard final before that)

Could most likely be possible. I only have the women's mountainbike that day (though it's hospitality so I thought about checking out the Clubhouse 24 as well)

Anyone else?

I'm there from the 27th to the 7th and would certainly be ready for a meetup if we find a suitable time

What a finish from Johan!
