Like Eilers, that was just a monstrous keirin final
-
What a wonderful day and a race I'm gonna remember forever, Laura

LAURAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

Come on Laura

Well that's definitely not going to happen Thanks!

So the Dutch athletes in the women's keirin and/or sprint will automatically come from the couple that is chosen for the team sprint? Supposing of course one of them won't do the omnium, because there's Kirsten Wild for that So basically, we have the maximum number of 8 male athletes for Rio and we'll have 3 women then (2 team sprint/sprint/keirin and 1 in omnium).

How does this work for the Olympics? We have 3 good sprinters/keirin riders/team sprinters: - Shanne Braspennincx (recovering) - Laurine van Riessen - Elis Ligtlee We qualified in the team sprint, does that mean theoretically all 3 could go to the Olympics? For example Van Riessen/Ligtlee in the team sprint and sprint and Ligtlee/Braspennincx in the keirin?

Yeah I pretty much agree with you I think Norway, Russia, Germany and France are the main contenders for the medals (somewhat in that order) and indeed Austria depends on Julian's shooting. Every other team in the top-5 is of course always possible, mistakes are made easily, but would be a surprise.
-
There are 3 events left and all three gold medals can of course be won by non-French Though unfortunately France will again be one of the favorites in the men's relay..

Great race for Fak by the way, at least there's that

Yes, it would take too much time. Now they are just announcing a half one by one, and then "oh, yeah, let's do all the rest right now instead". It's like TV would broadcast the entire first 20km of a marathon and then compress the second half in a 30 seconds highlight video.
-
Then they should announce the professional votes one after another and then the public votes one after another. If all votes count the same, it's just bullshit to announce 50% of the votes in a one hour show (or longer) and announce the second 50% all at once. That just doesn't make sense. What's wrong with having professional and public votes count the same, but putting them together per country and announcing them as one big vote?

Ah, I thought it was spoilers

No. I don't know exactly where it was anymore, but I think in the table tennis thread.
-
So we'll have to beat Sweden by 4 and hope Switzerland can contain Norway. Easy
-
What's the tie breaker? Goal difference?
-
But it's annoying...watching for a whole long time to see vote after vote being published...and then in the end, BOOOM, all "public votes" at once messing up the entire standings. Either do it the old way, or announce all "professional" votes at once and then all "public" votes at once. Obviously they won't do it because one and a half hour of useless watching is still a lot of commercial income or something I guess.

Sometimes I think Sindo is German, because of his use of capital letters for regular words like "post" or "user"
-
Why do I see this when someone apparently has a spoiler?
-
Laura Amazing final lap, absolutely epic
-
Honestly I think there are much better examples
-
What do you mean with "those"?
-
For a moment I thought Ireland had gone under in the sea or something

Wonderful run for Hirscher who has taken the World Cup GS and World Cup overall titles in one great sweep 5 overall WC titles in a row, breaking his own record of 4 consecutive titles
