Clearly all the changes are aimed at reducing costs. Among them, it was decided to give the chance to "decentralize" the gut to play sledge, bob and skeleton trials.
That is, if a candidate city were to be absent, then the nearest existing facility would be used, without requiring to build one.
In addition, the reform of the allocation process was approved, in which a preliminary phase was established during which the International Olympic Committee will have real talks with the polling places, in order to understand whether a candidature launch is feasible or not , Possibly giving advice on how to move.
In other words, CIO changes role in the controversy to obtain the Olympic Games, passing from "judge" to "wise acting first person". An evolution made necessary by the strong dispersion of candidatures that occurred both in the winter edition 2022 and in the summer 2024.
