But a deep disagreement with his federation over his place in the team blew the situation wide open. And Mansur clearly did not leave the ship quietly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In a long statement, the Brazilian recounts more than a decade spent defending his flag, but above all an accumulation of frustrations. He notably denounces \u201cincompetence\u201d, \u201ca lack of competent leadership\u201d, \u201cpower struggles among athletes\u201d, \u201cfavouritism\u201d and the absence of fair rules and procedures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In short, in terms of atmosphere, we have seen more serene World Championship preparations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cI was subjected to blackmail and mistreatment\u201d<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Above all, Mansur goes much further than a simple sporting disagreement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u00ab I endured the most deplorable treatment from this leadership team, the worst I have ever witnessed. I was subjected to blackmail and mistreatment. Yet I persevered and gave the very best of myself for this country.<\/em> \u00bb<\/p>\n\n\n\n According to the rider, the events that took place on Sunday 16 August were the final straw.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cBut the events of this Sunday, 16 August 2026, crossed every line in terms of ethics, respect and sportsmanship.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n The consequence is radical. Mansur is not only withdrawing from the Worlds: he announces that from now on he will no longer represent Brazil in championships or Nations Cups.<\/p>\n\n\n\n He wishes the Brazilian riders present in Aachen good luck, before saving his final arrow for the officials concerned:<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cAs for this leadership team, I feel nothing but pity for them.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n Tchau. And a few pieces of broken crockery on the floor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n In this tug-of-war, Yuri Mansur can count on heavyweight support. The Olsen de Almeida family, the rider\u2019s main owners through Olsen Stables \/ QH Horses, have given him their full backing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u00ab On behalf of Olsen Stables \/ QH Horses, we would like to express our full support for Yuri Mansur and his decision regarding the current situation.<\/em> \u00bb, ont-ils fait savoir.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Un appui loin d\u2019\u00eatre anodin alors que Mansur devait justement aborder ces Championnats du monde avec\u00a0QH Alfons Santo Antonio<\/strong>, l’un des piliers de son piquet de chevaux qui devait sans doute disputer l\u00e0 son dernier championnat de taille.<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n Reste maintenant la question qui risque de faire quelques kilom\u00e8tres dans les all\u00e9es d\u2019Aix-la-Chapelle :\u00a0Yuri Mansur pourrait-il prochainement changer de nationalit\u00e9 sportive ?<\/p>\n\n\n\n La piste n\u00e9erlandaise ne sort pas compl\u00e8tement de nulle part. Son fils\u00a0Pedro Mansur, 13 ans, repr\u00e9sente d\u00e9j\u00e0 les Pays-Bas\u00a0et vient de devenir\u00a0champion d\u2019Europe Children individuel \u00e0 Hagen avec Hotmail des For\u00eats, quelques jours seulement avant les Mondiaux.
