William Dandjinou with a gold medal sweep of the individual distances!

Velzeboer finally ends the Canadian gold medal streak

Can't remember if I've ever seen 4 of 5 skaters wipe out in a race before

Man, van 't Wout isn't having the greatest weekend to say the least

Silver for Stellato-Dudek and Deschamps at the Grand Prix de France

Update: Roussel DQ, Dubois bronze instead

I think it's streaming on Youtube so you should be able to start from the beginning.

That was a complete mess of a 500m final

So this is how qualification works: If you qualify a relay for one gender + 8 or 9 individual quotas for that gender, you get 5 quotas for that gender If you qualify a relay for one gender + 7 individual quotas or less, you get 4 quotas Otherwise, the number of quotas for that gender is the maximum amount of entries you have in one single event So for the US, they've have 2, 1, and 2 men in qualifying position in the individual events but no relay so the maximum amount of quotas the men get is 2. The same thing can be said for Poland except they have 3 men in the 500m in qualifying position so their maximum amount of quotas is 3. Italy and China both have their men's relay teams in qualifying position and have the maximum 9 individual quotas so they get 5 quotas. Japan has their men's relay team in qualifying position but only has 7 individual quotas so they only get 4 quotas

Summer McIntosh Drops Out of Remaining World Cup Stops Due To Undisclosed Illness

My guess will be that the mixed relay rankings won't be necessary for qualification, but just in case, here's the current standings. 1. China - 10000 2. Netherlands - 8500 3. Canada - 7225 4. Korea - 6141 5. Japan - 5220 6. Italy - 4437 7. Poland - 3771 8. United States - 3206 9. Kazakhstan - 2725 10. Hungary - 2316 11. Germany - 1969 12. Croatia - 1673 13. France - 1422 14. Great Britain - 1209 15. Czechia - 1028 16. Belgium - 874 16. Ukraine - 874 So right now, France and Belgium would qualify outside the top 12 while Germany and Croatia wouldn't.

However, I would expect this number to go down by next weekend as skaters start to experience regression to the mean and skaters who put up an outlier performance fall out of qualification position. Lot's of surprising countries in qualifying position here It'll be interesting to see how long countries like Hong Kong, Slovakia, Taiwan and Thailand can hang on.

It'll be up in an hour

That's a hattrick of falls for Dandjinou this weekend

Double individual gold for Sarault!

Yeah, just for those 4 stops. Worst result is dropped. I've been working on the calculations so I'll post those to the forum later.

Lovely pass by Sighel to beat Rim to the finish

The world ranking points

When you start from the 5th position in a 500m, you basically have almost no chance of a medal unfortunately, let alone a victory

I blame CBC

Meanwhile, I see that the ISU has yet to post the world standings so it looks like I'll be doing the calculations myself. Again, why did they remove the previous results system again?

also Stoddard

lovely reverse jinx!

That should be 3 500m Olympic quotas secured
