Hate to say it but I think Top 18 teams is now practically settled. Anyone passing CUB or AUT1 at this point will need to rack up more than one podium, and CHI, NOR2 and AUT2 haven't come anywhere near podiums in like, forever.
That just leaves the races for USA2 and NED2, which are about 85% over.
Here is the Men's table of Top 10 finishes in the Olympic points race for Paris,. 18 teams qualify, counting that one of the 18 is the World Champion. After Xiamen I will change the commentary to Top 12. At this point we have 2 Challenge events, and 3 Elite16 events remaining to be played.
Men's Rankings, Top 10 finishes
Yellow means played Tepic. + means improved position, = means stayed put, - means lost ground
+ 2. SWE, Åhman / Hellvig, 10780
+ 3. BRA1, George / Andre, 8420
= 4. CZE, Perusic / Schweiner, 8380+ 5. GER, Ehlers / Wickler, 8340
+ 6. POL, Bryl / Losiak, 8320
- 7. USA1, Benesh / Partain, 8220
= 8. ITA1, Cottafava / Nicolai, 7880
= 9. NED1, Boermans / De Groot, 7840, (7260 + 600)
-- note: (have played only 9, assumes 10th finish will equal lowest counting)
10. BRA2, Evandro / Arthur, 7520
11. QAT, Cherif / Ahmed, 7340
= 12. NED2, Brouwer / Meeuwsen, 7240
+ 13. ESP, Herrera / Gavira, 6980
+ 14. USA2, Crabb / Brunner, 6940 (1120, 800,760,600,600,600,600,460,600,800) 460,460 (fixed)
---Notes: MxCha (800), Mx E16(600), CHNCha (Y), BRA E16 (Q1)
- 15. ITA2, Ranghieri / Carambula, 6920
IMO 1-15 except for USA2 and NED2 are already secure in their Olympic berth via Points
----------- IMO all the below plus USA2 and NED2 are still in play, some more than others/ Below each team's finish listing is a listing of in which of the next 4 FIVB tournaments the team is registered to play.
