At the end of next month, Vivey and Van Zandweghe will have the opportunity to secure a place at the Games at a European qualifying tournament in Hungary. The Bruges Boat Race is all about that preparation. Last year they missed out on an Olympic ticket at the World Cup. They have therefore further increased the intensity of training in recent months.
Marlon Colpaert is ready as a third man if he unexpectedly has to step in. He has also focused on the light skiff, which is not an Olympic discipline.
