Malta Paralympic Committee — Annual report 2022 — historical para-sport evidence ↗

Publication date: Not stated

MPC’s retrospective reports sixth in wheelchair 100m without a class. The preserved IPC reconstruction’s men’s 100m Wheelchair C table lists Galea (MLT) seventh in heats at 24.2 seconds, with no Galea in its six-place final. The reconstruction itself warns of possible transcription errors. Neither sixth overall nor a corrected final placing is treated as settled; the old numerical placing is retained only in originalObservation and excluded from ranking.
