Covid-19 Effects on Olympic Games
Introduction
The covid-19 pandemic disrupted sports calendars with games played behind closed doors and empty stadia to their final halt and indefinite postponement, like the Olympic Games. From BBC Sports (2020), the Tokyo Summer Olympic games initially scheduled for 2020 were postponed to 2021. This means preparations will be re-planned. Calling it off means vast sums of money will be lost beginning with Japan’s investments, loss by sponsors, and athletics. Coincidentally, it has an impact on the psychology of athletes. This analysis shows how covid-19 has influenced the Olympic Games and its stakeholders, the sponsors, and athletes.

Additionally, the mobility products like electric vehicles that Totoya had modeled to provide for this competition will have to be lost or postponed to next year when the games will be held (Totota, 2019). They planned to produce around 200 mobility cars to assist in different pitches and tracks and make the Olympics coordination simpler than before. A thought not fully adsorbed is the self-driving cars to be used in the games (Szymkowski, 2019). Their provision of the 90% electrified vehicles is also a sign to promote green energy use across different sections of the world. These plans look to be overrun by the delay of the events, forcing them to wait until when the games are held.
Athletes spent valuable time in training to ensure they were ready for the event. These had individual sponsors, who invested much to enhance exposure ...
