Between August 17 and 23, 2019 , the most interesting thing in the world of sports was the Cycling Tour of Burgos , the European Field Hockey and the Badminton World Cup . Only the beginning of the soccer league , still with pre-season rhythms and summer heat, somewhat alleviated the sports addiction of the fans. 365 days later , August is going to be a very different month. This week will be this time the Tourmalet command and sofa: semifinals and finals of the Champions , final of the Europa League , home of the NBA playoffs , Styrian GP MotoGP ,Cincinnati 1,000 Masters of tennis and Spanish cycling championship . Everything in seven days.

The coronavirus pandemic forced to suspend the great sporting events of the season. We lost this summer the Euro Cup, the Tokyo Olympic Games and Wimbledon , tennis cathedral, but others survived the virus finding a kind of postponement that has left many of the best competitions of the spring crowded in the summer holidays.

SOCCER . After months of doubts and negotiations, only the French league decided not to consider a return to the fields this season. First he turned the Bundesliga , and finished with Bayern champion, which following the League, the Premier League and Serie A. The Liverpool won the title after 30 years and Juventus has directed, while Madrid and Barcelona They are still fighting for a championship that will end on July 19. That day the Spanish tournament will close the door until September 12, giving away a few weeks without soccer for the teams of our country before the Champions League resumes, with Madrid visiting City and Barça receiving Naples to try to travel, together to the Athletic to the final phase of Lisbon starting on August 12 in Portugal ... if regrowth permits.

FORMULA 1 . The signing of Carlos Sainz by Ferrari was the great news of the paddock during the quarantine, but the Spanish will have to wait until next year to debut in red. Meanwhile, he will have the opportunity to assert himself in an eight-race express championship that will start with a double in Austria. Lewis Hamilton , more vindictive than ever during the confinement, starts again as a favorite, while Mercedes, his team, has not yet confirmed his pair of pilots for 2021, a season in which the possible return of Fernando Alonso will continue flying over the circuits .

MOTOGP . Jerez will host the first two races of a World Cup in which Marc Márquez will once again be the rival to beat. There will be 17 grand prizes, six of them in Spanish territory, and Dovizioso , who has just undergone surgery on the clavicle, Quartararo and Maverick Viñales will be its main competitors.

BASKETBALL . The Endesa League ends today and the Euroleague decided at the time to completely cancel the season, but the NBA will come to the rescue with the basketball bubble that it has prepared at the Disneyworld headquarters in Orlando ( Florida ). In the previous tests only 16 of the more than 300 players have tested positive, so in the United States they trust that it will play normally. It will be two months of summer camp for the Raptors of Marc Gasol and Ibaka, the Suns of Ricky and the Nuggets of Juancho , among others.

TENNIS . With the domination of positives left by Novak Djokovic's controversial Adria Tour , the circuit has more doubts than ever. He will return on August 22 with the Cincinnati Masters 1,000 , so the ATP has enough time to avoid more irresponsible behavior. The greats start on August 31 with the US Open. Roland Garros starts a month later.

CYCLING . The bikes will take a run in July and August, with the Vuelta a Burgos as the start, before facing a roller coaster in which the Tour de France, Giro d'Italia and Vuelta a España will be linked . These last two overlap, making it impossible to run all three.
