Bearas

with NM in pole vault will hurt their overall points... Although it increased points for

I completely missed the thing about her sister... just reading on it now!

Just noticed that they removed Serbian third jump in triple jump, finishing with no mark, lol

disappointing she's competing with the best result on paper, but always struggles to showcase outside of home turf... I mean, Poland is not that far away, I was hoping it was close enough for good result

Ohhh noo... That female commentator is calling Latvian athlete Lithuanian

?

He's literally the worst one on paper... The fact he's not last is already an achievement for him

Women's 5000m about to start... is there anyone to beat the legendary performance of of this morning?

If no SB then I used European Athletics seedings, so Morauskaitė was at 8th and obviously improved. Also improvements in both shot put and hammer.

Overall simulation after 3 events: Place Nation Sim Score Score change 1 HUN 429 2 2 UKR 400 -7 3 SLO 382 5 4 ROU 343 -1 5 LTU 323 10 6 CRO 301 -1 7 SRB 295 -1 8 DEN 282 -8 9 CYP 279 1 10 EST 276 4 11 LAT 272 -5 12 SVK 265 -3 13 ISL 240 -2 14 BUL 223 6 15 LUX 180 -1 16 MDA 129 1 and improving the most; and underperforming the most

Morauskaite second place on her first official run after injury and not running since WCh last year!

Lange on the ground!

Bezede crying in the shot put despite leading after 3 attempts..

Marton is struggling to even reach 17m, despite throwing above 18m this year

Latvian hammer thrower with 23m and new SB! lol, they sent heptathlete just to collect points..

Yikes, although still beating Serbia.... Marjova's SB was third worst after Romania and Slovenia, but both of those are beating Slovakian atm.

Interesting fact: in the panning shot of the stadium, you can see more people outside of the stadium on the benches or strolling around than inside.... 0 spectators again

Yep, it started. I got scared as if you look at the programme on https://europeangames.tv it only mentions stream starting with Women's 400m

Seems there's no broadcast of women's shot put and women's hammer throw?

Thats bizarre, maybe they didn't want to overhype it and just under promised just in case... but even then, the only evets were Hungarian's SB is not amongst top5 is Men's5000m, men's pole vault, men's shot put, women's high jump and women's triple jump... We shall see how close Hungarians are to their season performances shortly, but I think you guys have the favourites at the moment.

Also - simulated rankings of day 1: 149 128 116 108 107 101 99 96 95 82 80 79 68 68 65 53 This will look completely different when comparing to all included events, will get some false hope to qualify, while and might get upset with rankings after first day.

Right people, let's make it interesting. I've went trhough everyone's SB/PB in Division II and that is how the simulated score looks like for Div2 (please note relkays are not included as neraly impossible to get the accurate prediciton rankings): 427 407 377 344 313 302 296 290 278 277 272 268 242 217 181 128 So we are looking into and easily qualifying to Div 1, with and fighting for last qualifying spot. looks very safe to remain in Div2 and highly likely to get relegated (especially when not competing in all events), with and fighting for survival!

I mean, I know we all making fun of the level, but it's good to see and improving on many of their national records
