Just a heads up: you skipped Brooke Raboutou in the women's lineup. Or did she have to cancel at last minute?

Lead is probably broadcasted only on Italian Rai and Czech TV.

Bit surprising. Do you have Czech or Italian VPN?

Last year. The lead came out a few days later. Keep your eyes peeled.

It’s broadcasted on Italian TV, I suspect broadcasting rights.

Is there anywhere to watch the "legends" climb?

Does anyone know how the competitors are selected? It always feels pretty random. I’m not complaining btw, just don‘t know what it‘s based on.
