How does IM decide on (re)allocation of Kona slots?
As it stands IM Kazakhstan on Aug 23 has been allocated 60 slots this year (20 or 30 more than usual). At the same foreigners are not allowed to travel in and this week WHO even included Kazakhstan as high risk country. Can change but a risky proposition to arrange flights etc.
Cool for the Kazakhs as it will be enough to finish to get a slot in some age groups but not really fair for the much more competitive European races that might happen this year.
With so many races cancelled until now they could increase the quota with 20-30 slots for any race that happens. No?
