Vektor 3,195 Posted May 17, 2021 #61 Share Posted May 17, 2021 Holy shit, Mihályvári! OQT time in women's 400 medley and huge upset inside the Hungarian team, it looks like Mihályvári will be our second choice for 400IM, not Jakabos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vektor 3,195 Posted May 24, 2021 #62 Share Posted May 24, 2021 Csaba Sós confirmed it after the ECh that the target for Hungary in Tokyo is still 1 gold and another 2 or 3 medals. Probably 1 gold + 1 medal from Milák and another 1 or 2 medals from Hosszú, Kapás and/or Kenderesi. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phelps 6,781 Posted June 25, 2021 #68 Share Posted June 25, 2021 Settecolli meet in Rome (ITA) last international event before the end of the qualification period... on day 1, 2 new Italian National records highlighted the evening session... Nicolò Martinenghi won the men's 100m breaststroke, improving to 58.29* (beating Arno Kamminga, who swam 58.40, with a great comeback in the last 20m)... *4th fastest specialists ever over the distance... Arianna Castiglioni once again was better than Benedetta Pilato and Martina Carraro (the 2 selected swimmers for this race in the Italian squad) in the women's 100m Breaststroke... she improved our National record to 1.05.67...Pilato swam 1.05.84 and Carraro 1.06.08... among others, Kristof Milak won the men's 100m Fly in 50.89 (in this race we saw Santo Condorelli's comeback with a promising 51.62, just a few hundreds of a second better than Federico Burdisso and the other best Italian specialists); Sarah Sjostrom won the women's 50m Fly in 25.42, edging out Ranomi Kromowidjojo (25.43); Bruno Fratus won the men's 50m Free in 21.71 (Alessandro Miressi was second in 21.97 and Santo Condorelli was 3rd in 22.00)... Finally, Federica Pellegrini had a solo show in the women's 200m free (1.56.23 her time) and Simona Quadarella also had more or less a training session in the women's 1500m Free (15.48.81 for her)...

Vektor 3,195 Posted June 26, 2021 #69 Share Posted June 26, 2021 4:09.57 from Dávid Verrasztó in men's 400 IM. Maybe he still has a good chance for the medal in Tokyo, but I have a hard time believing in it after waiting for his first Olympic medal for such a long time.

phelps 6,781 Posted June 26, 2021 #70 Share Posted June 26, 2021 Settecolli meet in Rome (ITA) best of day #2 said of Verraszto, for we also had Milak and Hosszu shining today... Milak won the men's 200m Fly (1.53.18), Katinka won the women's 400m IM (4.36.31)... the women's 100m Fly were won by Sarah Sjostrom, but in a very modest time (for her standard), 57 "high"... the women's 100m Free, instead, went to Femke Heemskerk (53.03) ahead of the same Sjostrom (53.47) and Ranomi Kromowidjojo (53.55)... 4th was Federica Pellegrini (53.71)... for what concerns the Italian swimmers, once again Benedetta Pilato (29.69) and Arianna Castiglioni (30.06, PB) were the best in the women's 50m Breaststroke, meanwhile the same race in the men's division went to Nicolò Martinenghi in 26.59... finally, the 100m Free were won quite surprisingly by Thomas Ceccon (48.14, PB) ahead of Alessandro Miressi (48.16), while Santo Condorelli was 3rd in 48.49... in the last event of the day, Simona Quadarella won the women's 800m Free and Guilherme Pereira Da Costa won the same race in the men's division, but both didn't swim any remarkable time...
