Already two Brits in that heat and three would be too many. Most of the world probably think Brits get too many spots as it is.

Could just switch people up if that's the case. 1st reserve means 1st reserve.

No, you cant. Different groups have different events, which athletes have been training for months.
You can't change their events the day before.

And apart from the seed the athletes were drawn at random this year.

There's only two sets of events for 5 groups isn't there?

No. There are 10 events split between 5 groups, but no 2 groups have the same events.
Load + drag and stones are the only 2 events featured in every group.
The other 4 events are deliberately mixed, to keep the qualifiers from being repetitive on TV.

How did Terry and Felix qualify ? Personally would prefer to see new blood come through. Neither of those two are anywhere near strong enough to make the finals or ever will be now...

Terry was top 3 so deserves it...i agree Felix shouldn't be there ahead of Paul, but the audience like him and he inspires older people. He makes me less worried about getting old.

Ah okay, could have guessed they would end up doing that. Can't say I pay much attention anymore. They have pretty much turned it into a reality TV show with this stupid stone s**t.

Terry put on an awesome showing at Brits to earn his spot.

Really pleased for Paul. Although it's a shame for Lalas.

What happened to Lalas? I’m guessing it was Vytautas?

Good luck Paul.
