heywoodu 13,500 Posted May 9, 2022 #2 Share Posted May 9, 2022 Apparently belief in a Brazilian woman qualifying isn't very big in Brazil, due to changes compared to Tokyo's qualifying system. What exactly changed (for a country like Brazil)? I heard something about certain races not counting anymore, which is negative for countries like Brazil, but not sure about the details. If you'd like to help our fellow Totallympics member Bruna Moura get to the 2026 Winter Olympics, after her car crash on the way to the 2022 Olympics, every tiny bit of help would be greatly appreciated!

Looks like they have disabled points farming on small-time races. Only the top tier races will count. To be honest, Brazil was not really the frontrunner in the points farming department. Some other nations will suffer much more (and consequently will fail to qualify this time around). #banbestmen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well if the end result is the same (no real shot at a ticket given their current quality), the damage in the end is kind of the same If you'd like to help our fellow Totallympics member Bruna Moura get to the 2026 Winter Olympics, after her car crash on the way to the 2022 Olympics, every tiny bit of help would be greatly appreciated!

Where did you find that? In the qualification document I see "The events included in the UCI Mountain Bike Olympic Qualification ranking can be found here", and then it links to: https://www.uci.org/calendar/mtb/1voMyukVGR4iZMhMlDfRv0?discipline=MTB Which is just the UCI MTB calendar page Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vojthas 947 Posted May 10, 2022 #6 Share Posted May 10, 2022 I was hoping for UCI to prepare an Olympic Ranking as well with their newest update of the World Ranking. But maybe the Totallympians will sum up, how it goes week by week? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EupenM 149 Posted May 11, 2022 #7 Share Posted May 11, 2022 Are all the World Cup competitions counted for the Olympic Qualification Ranking (cross-country, U23, short track)? Or only cross-country? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Short XCO counts too, but it's totally insignificant, the winner get 10 points (for compare, the national XCO championship winner get 100 points) Vojthas and EupenM 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vojthas 947 Posted May 11, 2022 #9 Share Posted May 11, 2022 But the Albstadt short doesn't count. The ranking started on Saturday, the short one was on Friday. MTB.xlsx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
