Seeing this I think & did the same in women’s single sculls. Venezuela could benefit from the “absurd rule” reallocation in LM2x, just as Guatemala will do in LW2x.

Wow, dissapointing result for Cabrera in M1x; it i’ll he hardwr for himnto seek his pass at the Final regatta Now i know it will be either Lechuga or the LM2x the ones in Tokyo. Also, with Peru moving to the A final in M1x, Nicaragua’s chances to compete in the Olympics increased.

And Ecuador loses an easy quota for them by not showing, so Nicaragua could get a rower in W1x

Konstanze Klosterhalfen 31:01.71 - 10,000m a superb show, she lapped every other competitor in the race with a new NR

That means I should tell Axoloco in Mexico City to pack his things, and bring enough Mexican spirits?

is in.

I managed to watch RAI's coverage of both races. Jonathan Soto actually has enough knowledge of how to ski on snow. Hopefully, he'll earn some worthy results that help him to be under 300 points by January 22 next year. BTW, Italian comentator stated that Greenland was a Norwegian territory a couple of times . The man needs a remedial geopolitics course

This "preferred bid" is basically to tell the rest: "if you even want to us to consider your proposal then be sure to built a lavish hotel, complete with every amenity possible, and waste your entire budget on unecessary arenas with "eco-friendly" materials that only our partner firms can provide you; if not, screw you" So much for equality and transparency, less for a renewal of the Olympic host role.

Well, to be fair, the number of quotas for women is still the same as for men; just less NOC's will have female representation.

Pitty, I hoped local media in Baja California might be following him, to know why he was overlooked to compete in LM2x; it was a good opportunity to earn a second boat.

Soto did it. Now he only need another under 300 result to make it. Too bad for Martinez in the women’s side, but she’ñl have another opportunity tomorrow

Have you heard any news of Alexis López?

José Carlos Herrera, del Tec de Mty, de hecho resultó ser compañero de carrera de un amigo mío de la prepa. Sí, el desapareció después de Río, lo mismo que Alberto Álvarez que logró avanzar a la final de salto triple, y muchos otros. Que lástima nunca hubo infraestructura para que brillaran en Centroamericanos, Panamericanos, Mundiales y Olímpicos De los esquiadores, tengo fe en que Soto pueda de nuevo bajar la barrera de los 300 puntos, lo que ya hizo en enero en una competencia en EUA. Sería genial tener un tercer elemento en Beijing, junto a Schleper y Dickson

Mucho de esto viene de una falta total de plan de trabajo de la federación nacional, con un buen cuadro de técnicos y especialistas por cada disciplina. Sin ello, difícilmente veremos mejora numérica en participación y cualitativa en cada atleta. Cambiando un poco de tema, lista la delegación mañana para el Mundial de Esquí. Dedos cruzados para que al menos uno de ellos logre calificar a Beijing. Al menos, nuestra competidora logro captar la atención de Espn: Mexicana ser la 1ra en asistir a JJOO de Invierno

It's in the qualification document https://nocnsf.nl/media/1697/fisa-rowing.pdf

Well, given the poor publicity this competition in particular received, and that travel to Mexico is suspended as far as I know, they probably have a reason to miss this competition.

Thank you I'll cheer for the Mexicans, but also for @brunamoura

How does the qualification race works? A specific time or a top position?

Heard it first hand?

What about ANY athlete that is discriminated in their own country for their political beliefs? Latin American and African countries would parade behind the 5 rings more often than not. True. the situation in Belarus is an utter chaos and severe crackdown on political and human rights; but again this is a direct attack to a single country. Given that criteria Cuba should've parade behind the rings from 1960; Venezuela from 2004 until today; Zimbabwe? Sudan? Syria? Myanmar?

Maybe they will pick 4 from those 6, names only revealed in the starlist.

Well, Argentina decided that their last game wasn't worth it, so Colombia took the chance and beat them, just as Venezuela clinch another victory against the Chilean side.

Didn't know that fact; indeed an interesting situation, dont you think @Braulio?
