Technically you do have chances to qualify in C1/C2/K1/K2. In reality, we will see what happens when you will focus on K2 to salvage your quota chances.

Yeah, my guess is that Poland is the weakest European boat in the final. But you can never know in K4.

So, here's where we stand in men's K4. will fight for 7 spots, 1 boat will miss Paris. already qualified as the only non-European boat in the A final. v will fight for the Asian quota in the B final. qualified as the only American boat in the Top18.

to the final. and are out, they won't qualify for Paris. Disaster for Czechoslovakia.

qualify to the men's K4 final. There will likely be 2 continents in the final, which means that the last, 9th placed team in Final A will miss Paris. This also means that already qualified for Paris. The other 8 European boats will have to fight for 7 places.

WOW, drama, I am so sorry @hckošice... is out, they will miss Paris in the men's K4.... qualify to the final.

are the biggest losers in the WK4. They won the bronze at the European Games, and yet they will miss Paris.

to the final and to Paris. are the 9 qualified boats. That's 3 continents, the last spot has to go to 4th continent, America, v battle in the B final.

There will be a Canada v Mexico fight for the American quota in the B final.

to the women's K4 final and they also win the quotas, just like 4 spots remain.

Here we go, probably the most important canoe races are coming up since Tokyo, the K4 semis for the Olympic qualification.

Yeah, the session of today's final is delayed to 16:30 CET.

There are three athletes in women's canoe who are in both the C1 and C2 final. Luzan Cirilo Duboys Jacome So there won't be much doubling-up in women's canoe. The athletes in the C1 B-final won't be able to win quotas.

I guess the men's K4 1000m is back in some form because the semis and finals are so close to each other now that it might as well be viewed as 2 x 500m event. Especially because the semis will be as hard as the final itself. Same applies to the women's K4, which should give an advantage to the 3 boats who are resting.

Women's C1 finalists This is one of our weaker Olympic events, I doubt that we will have 3 athlete quotas in women's canoe.

Bad weather in Duisburg, the races are delayed. I think we currently have a 1 and a half hour delay, but that might be increased later on.

Apparently Hudson's eye has to be checked because something may have went into it during the crash, that why the first SF is delayed.

200 heat 1 is postponed because of the crash

I was just thinking about it yesterday that these things can be dangerous...

Hüttner knows what he's talking about, whether you like it or not. We have to spend extra money because the Germans literally didn't provide enough food for our team. And I am not talking about the stream. I am talking about the TV signal, which we don't have. MTVA broadcasted the semis 4 years ago in Szeged because those were crucial races for the Olympic qualification and I am sure we provided that TV signal for everyone. Here's it's locked behind a paywall at a streaming service and it's not on TV. I obviously don't expect perfect organization, we have our issues at the Athletics Worlds. Couple of issues are fine. But I expect Germany to organize something on the level of Szeged 2019 and I am not seeing that based on the complaints coming from our team and the lack of TV broadcast.

Csaba Hüttner, the Hungarian head coach, says that the organization of the Worlds is terrible. They didn't get enough food, there's no AC at the hotel, and the venue isn't big enough for the combined senior + para World Champs. On top of that multiple Hungarian athletes are displeased with the starters, they say that the start of races are unpredictable. And yeah, on top of all of that we don't have TV broadcast of the semis and the heats at the Worlds where those races are very important for the Olympic qualification. I think the Hungarian TV would broadcast those races but they aren't getting a TV signal from the Germans. I know nothing can be as professional in Canoe Sprint as the events held at us in Szeged, but really, we are talking about the other big Canoe Sprint nation here, I would expect more from Germany.

As far as I know the same kind of rule applies to qualification, the quota in the smaller boat gets reallocated in that event, as long as they can fill a new boat if we are talking about K2/C2.
