(Reuters) - When the International Olympic Committee's 100-plus members sit down next week in Lima to vote on the hosts of the 2024 and the 2028 Olympics, it will be a rare case of the result long known.

Paris and Los Angeles were the two last cities left in the race for the 2024 Summer Games, with four others -- Hamburg, Rome, Budapest and Boston - having pulled out amid concerns over cost and size.
