In addition to the above NOC's, who else got an extra place? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

intoronto 4,071 Posted June 2, 2019 #595 Share Posted June 2, 2019 The athletics qualification system is going to lead to another mess like in Toronto 2015. Toronto 2015 was only given a quota of 680, the same amount of entries as in Guadalajara 2011. PASO failed to realize 2015 was being held at a more friendly time during the year (which would increase entries). A total of 1100 athletes qualified to enter and not all could compete due to the quota. In 2019, same scenario. 740 quotas given, with countries allowed to enter relay specific athletes, however the entry quota per event equals the maximum quota. So we are likely to end up with more athletes entered then quotas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Always the same in athletics Well Mexico is not going to enter every athlete that qualifies, as the idiot federation put more strict marks... in some cases, they go way past our own NR thiago_simoes 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Literally all the events minus a couple have 2 qualified in each. The strict quotas per event will lead to small countries with 1-2 entries each. I am predicting will have the smallest team in Lima, with 3 total (1 athletics, 2 in swimming). Their female weightlifter is in "negotiations" to join the team as well.
