With the conclusion of the Tour de Ski, FIS has updated the quotas that each nation potr & agrave; deploy for the second period of the World Cup. In this article we propose the quotas of the male sector, for those women click here. There & egrave; However a & rsquo; inconsistency common that deserves to be investigated.
Tuesday 13 January 2015 7 minutes reading time
The criteria for assignment of each unit, please refer to this link. L & rsquo; inconsistency early regards the Official Rules and the place assigned to the nominal leader of the nine existing Continental Cup.
The regulation, which again present a translation into Italian, but that & egrave; fully available in English at this link (the point in question & egrave; the 3.1.6 on page 6 of this pdf), reads:
3.1.6 Additional quota for winners or leaders of the COC
The winners of the General Classification in the previous season of each COC, have the right to participate in tenders of the first period of the World Cup the following season.
The provisional leaders of all COC the following dates are entitled to participate in competitions of the World Cup the following period:
1 & deg; Period of the World Cup & ndash; Winners COC 2013-14 season 2 & deg; Period of the World Cup & ndash; COC leaders to January 12, 2015 3 & deg; Period of the World Cup & ndash; COC leaders to February 9, 2015 4 & deg; Period of the World Cup & ndash; COC leaders to March 2, 2015
An official list of athletes qualified sar & agrave; published on the FIS website.
The official list & egrave; found at this link. Immediately jumps to & rsquo; eye the presence of Dietmar N & ouml; ckler as leader of Opa Cup. L & rsquo; Tyrolean actually & agrave; not & egrave; leader of Opa Cup to January 12, as the & egrave; Markus Weeger (click here for the general classification of Opa Cup) but it was on December 21, the date of conclusion of the first period of the World Cup (click here for the calendar with the division into periods). The comparisons for the other COC are not possible because & ndash; despite being started by pi & ugrave; a month & ndash; are not yet present the overall rankings on the site FIS, but the discussion is likely & egrave; similar.
Taking therefore good for the shares officially published by the FIS, bench & eacute; inconsistent with the rules, here are the male contingent of each nation for the second period of the World Cup 2014-15
