| 2007 IPC CYCLING ROAD AND TRACK "COMBINED" NATIONS RANKING LISTS ALLOCATION | Number of male qualification slots to be allocated to each NPC, up to a maximum of thirteen (13) including slots allocated through other methods. The top one (1) ranked NPC on the 2007 IPC Cycling Road and Track Combined Women Nations Ranking Lists as of 31 December 2007 will have their total ranking points divided by four (4) to determine the number of Ranking Points for each qualification slot. The resulting ranking point factor will be used to calculate the number of qualification slots from each NPC's ranking points total. This process will be used to determine the number of female qualification slots to be allocated to each NPC, up to a maximum of five (5) including slots allocated through other methods. IPC Cycling reserves the right to make minor adjustments to the factor in order to achieve the required allocation of ninety five (95) male and twenty-three (23) female qualification slots. The allocation figure will, in most instances, be rounded up to the next whole number. However, at IPC Cycling's discretion, allocation figures with 0.4 or below, will be rounded down. Furthermore, IPC Cycling will apply a "ring fenced system" to some, or all, of each NPC's qualification slots in order to protect the viability of each event. The NPC will be required to confirm entry of a qualified athlete in the specified class in order to retain the respective qualification slot. | 23 female athletes | |
