What's up with the junior/U23 world champs' schedule? The U23 athletes have a sprint, distance race and a mixed relay, whereas the juniors get to race in a sprint, individual start distance race, mass start distance race and normal non-mixed relays...

.

U-23 races also count towards the basic quota for Beijing 2022.

And both U-23 and junior races count for the nation's ranking. Which is probably why Turkey is there with four junior girls, and Mongolia with two, Lithuania with four and so on. The fight is on.

Cross country events are on a Pay stream, unless you are in Scandinavia.

Nordic Combined & Ski Jumping are on YT, though, with one tiny disadvantage for non-Finnish speakers. :dunno:

Damn it, last time it was in Germany and all those races were readily available to watch on YouTube :( 

 

Seriously, 18 euro for junior world championships in a fringe sport...idiots.

Impressive qualifying by Niilo Moilanen, leaving everyone at least 5 seconds behind him and only the top-11 within 10 seconds. Excellent 8th place for Jaume Pueyo :ESP.

 

DNF for Tuuli Raunio in the women's qualifying, that makes one worried when that happens in a sprint. Maria Iglesias :ESP made the cut by 0,03 seconds, cool. Meanwhile, the likes of Lithuania, Turkey, Mongolia all scored a single Nation's Ranking point per athlete, so they're not a threat for Brazil as of yet.

Implication being that Brazil is ahead at this point? :yikes:

Not yet, but Brazil will have a competitor in two World Cup races (finishing = points and finishing in the top-100 is enough for more than one point) and at the World Championships Brazil should be able to score some points as well, considering there are three athletes, two of whom might compete in more than two races including the team sprint. Until today there were 27 nations in the ranking, today's competition added Spain, Turkey, Lithuania, Mongolia and Kazakhstan. We can assume at least Kazakhstan will get ahead and stay ahead with the senior races, but that means there's still space inside the top-30, which is what Brazil needs to have a shot at qualifying two women for Beijing 2022.

    • More highlights   21.89 WL for  Gabby Thomas in the women's 200m at the Kip Keino Classic,  Cambrea Sturgis not far behind in a huge PB of 21.96    Rumesh Tharanga Pathirage continues his strong stretch of form with a 89.28m effort in men's javelin throw, just off his NR of 89.37m  Sinesipho Dambile with a PB of 19.77 in the men's 200m   10.03 PB for 18 year old  Gary Card in the men's 100m at the Penn Relays
    • Does the CAS have the authority to address from someone who believes the judges made a mistake in a given discipline? Pizzolato's last attempt at Paris 2024, which earned him the bronze medal, was controversial, but what does the CAS have to do with it? Even if the judges made a mistake then, the result won't change and this isn't the only case where someone feels wronged with this in world of sports. Unless, of course, they have some evidence of corruption or something like that
    • If Pizzolato will to return, would it be to the 86 kg category, or the 94 kg category, like Nasar? In 2024, they were both in the 89 kg category, which will no longer be at the Olympics, but in 2021 in Tokyo, Pizzolato won a medal in the 81 kg category.   Of course, it's unclear what's going on with the rape accusations- personally, unfortunately, I don't think he was ever a sweet angel- he was accused of other immoral things also 10 years ago, but gang rape? I find that hard to believe... Besides, Moldova has appealed about his bronze medal from Paris 2024 to the CAS- the verdict was supposed to be in February. Do you know anything about this? Did they have any grounds for this lawsuit at all?
    • Ukraine won 6 gold medals out of 10 in the women's competotion  + 1 silver and 1 bronze. Where do they get these girls from? It's always been a strong country, but they have never dominated like this. I wonder if their training methods would work in another country and if their coaches have any offerts to job from other countries? However, there is a significant decline in women's judo in Ukraine, so maybe they have directed all their resources and money towards wrestling?   In fact, Ukraine dominates Europe as much as Japan does the world- they have the best school in women's wrestling. In 2024, Ukraine only won 1 silver medal at the Paris Olympics? So even domination in Europe doesn't guarantee even 1 gold medal at the Olympics. Although, of course, if Italy for example, can't even win 1 bronze medal at the European Championships, then there's no point in even going to the World Championships...
    • Sablikova started on the road cycling and just almost qualified for Rio 2016. Maybe Lollobrigida would like to join the Italian track team? She has the good character and 2 medals at the Olympics, one in winter and one in summer, would be a legendary achievement, not only in Italy.   https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Martina_Sáblíková
    • One Wiebes is worth more than the all Italian team with Balsamo/Fidanza, etc., that much clear. Even if the Netherlands loses its dominance in the men's sprint, Wiebes will win 2-3 gold medals in other events. Just relax, man.
    • I'm most worried about our women's team in the pursuit – we have a reserve squad, but not advancing to the top 8 is a shame. We recently competed with out 1 team and had not good in 1 round. It doesn't look good. And the Netherlands are already taking Wiebes to the track team and will soon dominate the Madison/Omnium as well. Balsamo and Paternoster haven't made any progress for years and the our women's team at the Olympics has little chance to win a medal. Italy might even win World Championship/European Championship gold in the years after the Olympics, etc., but when the real fight comes, the UK or the USA will always beat us
    • Track cycling is one of the few sports where there is no host nation quota, so  will need to work hard to achieve our quotas.  It's not our best sport, but was happy to see Top 10 results in the Elimination Race for Grant Koontz and Emma Jimenez Palos (who is just 18!).
    • Yes, I saw the same thing you did @clemsonbeav (on both accounts) but I agree it looks pretty stock.
