Arnau Monné, Bernat Canet, Sergio López Barranco, Pablo Montalvo and Pol Retamal They will fight for the last time this Friday to achieve the qualifying for the World Cup in Budapest. The Spanish men’s 4×100 meter relay does not have the necessary time to be among the 16 fastest countries in the world and they will need to go below 38.50 seconds to get a ticket to the World Cup. With Canada, the United States, Great Britain, Jamaica, Ghana, South Africa, Brazil and France already qualified for the event thanks to their position in the previous Eugene 2022 World Cup, Spain must sneak into the eight leading teams to get a place.
Insufficient time in Belgium
Missed opportunity at the Liège Rally. The Spanish team was not able to achieve the necessary record and despite winning the race, the time was far from the target set. Spain ran in 39.06, insufficient to achieve World Cup aspirations. Despite the disappointment of the moment in the national athletes, the motivation to get the pass to Budapest is still present and at the Madrid Meeting at the Vallehermoso Stadium they will have the last chance to do it. Going down from 38.50 is the only possible option if they want to be at the World Cup on August 19.
The Spanish Athletics Federationor has requested, through social networks, support to the national team to feel the encouragement of the public in this vital test for the World Cup aspirations of the 4×100 relay.
