3 - :GER:CAN:USA

2 - :LAT:GBR:RUS:AUT:SUI:CZE

Plus whoever is the reserve for the unused Dutch quota. 

If you'd like to help our fellow Totallympics member Bruna Moura get to the 2026 Winter Olympics, after her car crash on the way to the 2022 Olympics, every tiny bit of help would be greatly appreciated! Full story and how to help can be found here!

This quota is a true miracle, if you consider that we use a old bob that was hidden nearly 2 years in the garage and the guys started to think about competing in this sport only this September and had their first training run only few weeks later. Some of them never sat in a sled before !

4 man bob quotas announced

Looks like Netherlands and Slovakia have turned down their quota

The Dutch quota not being used was 99,99% certain, but Slovakia? Damn, @hckosice must be heartbroken :(

No, that's not what this means. It means that NED and SVK have received unused quotas (from unused continental spots).

 

There are 3 continental quotas in each event and only one was used here (Australia).
