According to WA they have to participate in the 4x1 relays to secure their spots for Tokyo and Eugene: ‘To complete their Olympic qualification, all teams must compete with bona fide effort in tomorrow’s finals. If a team does not start in the final due to a medical reason, they must present a medical certificate from the World Athletics medical delegate in order to guarantee their qualification for the Olympic Games.‘ https://www.worldathletics.org/competitions/world-athletics-relays/silesia21/news/press-releases/global-championships-tokyo-olympics-oregon-relays-silesia-21 Maybe two run the 4x2 directly after the 4x1 or they won‘t take part in the 4x2.

Well, Grebo was‘nt as bad as she looked like, she only gone to fast. Brossier was not convincing. The splits were: Brossier 53,51s Lacoste 52,62s Grebo 52,60s Guei 51,73s I wish we see the last three again tomorrow, but i think that won’t happen and we see Pauline, Ntiamoah and Amaro, so France will be Last again.

I say, that we see tomorrow 4 completely different ladies in the 4x4 like 2019, what will be really stupid, because they could have the chance to finish on the podium if they switch Grebo and maybe Brossier out. If they want to get the younger athletes a chance to run they could done that in the heats today, where they would be much more useful than a Brossier or a Trynkler.

Sananes isn‘t in Poland she had a very bad indoor season. Gueï runs a Good 400/4x400 in Berlin in 90 minutes she would have the potential, you‘re right.

I‘m not sure what was the plan with Brossier and Trynkler. Brossier was dead, a Split over 54 and Trynkler also very Slow. They have at least 2 other girls that can run sub 53 maybe sub 52 in a relay. That are the 3-4 seconds that France lost.

And as expected poor performance from the French girls. So no olympics and World Champs for them.

4x1 W Spain and Ireland qualified for Eugene 22 4x1 M Ukraine and France qualified for Eugene 22 (not official yet)

Olympics

Then they changed the rules. In 2019 at the World Relays Italy qualified for Doha even they not finished at the world Relays. And at the world champs France not finished at the world champs but qualified for Tokyo.

In Doha also the teams qualified that not reach the finish line or get disqualified

At the moment yes

Brasil DSQ

Poland Czech Republic will qualify for World Champs in Eugene

Switzerland and Spain also qualified for World Champs Eugene next year.

Yes, Last Spot for them. Good Job from Gueï and especially from Lacoste. Bad from Brossier and very Bad from Grebo.
