Speed in Lead decides who go to Tokyo

Stefano Ghisolfi was the first one to Top the Lead route which later also Sascha Lehmann, Alberto Gines Lopez and Adam Ondra did. As Lopez tied Stefano's time, by the second, and later Ondra, climbing last, was the fastest, Ghisolfi lost his Olympic dream and instead finished #12. Although there will be a final on Saturday the six spots to Tokyo are already decided as also Kokoro Fujii and Meichi Narasaki made it to the Top-8 final. The results also mean that both France and Germany have filled their max country quota as Japan did in the World Championship. Complete results 1. Adam Ondra CZE (c) Vladek Zumr 2. YueFei Pan CHN 3. Alberto Gines Lopez ESP 4. Jan Hojer GER 5. Bassa Mawem FRA X. Kokoro Fujii JPN 6. Nathaniel Coleman USA X. Meichi Narasaki JPN Another dramatic example of how much impact Speed had in Lead. If Sasha had been the fastest to Top, he had made it to Tokyo instead of being #15.
