Dunadan

Updates since last night: Andorra + 1 quota, Croatia + 3. No team event for Japan and Serbia.

The document says that the allocation of team event places comes before the other unused quotas. They should have waited a few hours but the result is the same, since and have already refused. Anyway it's good that accepted even knowing that they will be without Ledecka. Also, 22 confirmed for Switzerland

in the team event. They received an additional male quota.

If I'm not wrong, for the names of the athletes they can wait until Sunday but the number of quotas must be confirmed today. As for the numbers given yesterday, they are just an estimate... Italy just confirmed 8 quotas in ski jumping (not 6)

France confirmed all of their 19 quotas. Croatia refused the Team event quota.

Carla Marangoni has died at age 102. She was the oldest living Olympic medallist (silver medal in gymnastics in 1928) http://www.gazzetta.it/Sport-Vari/Ginnastica/19-01-2018/ginnastica-addio-carla-marangoni-102-anni-medaglia-olimpica-piu-antica-2401010803899.shtml

I don't think there are other federations...every existing FSN is on that list Probably this.

And then you have to modify the list, in which you count only the "sports-related" part of the funding (and there the total is about 141-142) http://www.coni.it/images/1-Primo-piano-2017/Contributi_FSN_2018.pdf

141 (not 241).

Another shortened downhill

A lot of competitions in the region can be found here http://www.asiva.it/asiva_calendario.aspx?disc=Biathlon. Search for CPI (Coppa Italia). You'll get the results by clicking on the code on the left. For today they should be XB013 and XB014 for men and women.

With a low grade of malignancy.

This could also happen in men's snowboard PGS (a small chance but not impossible) and men's 500m in short track speed skating.

Elena Fanchini said that she has been diagnosed with a tumor http://www.gazzetta.it/Sport-Invernali/Sci-Alpino/Coppa-Mondo-Sci/12-01-2018/sci-elena-fanchini-rinuncia-giochi-una-dura-prova-ma-non-mi-arrendo-240863112577.shtml

Sporting rivalries and medals Norway will finish ahead of Germany in the medal table Canada will finish ahead of the USA in the medal table At least 27 countries will win a medal Alpine skiing Less than 10 countries will win at least a medal The gold medal in men's alpine combined will be won by a skier who was ranked 21st or worst after the first run Mikaela Shiffrin will win at least 3 gold medals

Are you sure about the sport? He is not registered for an official sport federation (only an amateur multi-sports association) and the only Pasquale Semeraro that I can find is a master MTB cyclist. Edit: I read that he was caught after this MTB race https://www.bicinpuglia.it/eventi/73 , so he is a cyclist

Tom Dumoulin during Giro d'Italia's stage 16...surely unforgettable!

I think it's the Medley Relay which is also mixed. https://www.olympic.org/news/amp/tokyo-2020-event-programme-to-see-major-boost-for-female-participation-youth-and-urban-appeal EVENTS – Additions unless specified Events Sport Event # Aquatics (Swimming) 800m (M) & 1500m (W) +2 4x100m Medley Mixed Relay +1

Bodybuilding

I think this is also due to the fact that LEN created another similar tournament (Europa Cup http://www2.len.eu/?p=10647), so other teams decided to focus on this Europa Cup.

San Marino

I believe it's almost certain that the alpine combined will be replaced by a parallel event. This is from last May and you can read the draft calendar for 2020-21 (PDF), updated in October. A women's 2 run downhill is already scheduled in February 2018, and more are supposed to be held in 2020-21 according to that draft.
