Meh, again we have a group at the front.

 

Oh well, I can't wait for this event to be replaced by pursuit (not that pursuit is ideal, but still much better). :evil:

 

Which kind of pursuit format exactly? With start times based on a non-medal qualifying race I hope? We already have one atrocity too many with the biathlon sprint and pursuit both being a medal event.

Crnković is going very nicely thus far. Nice redemtpion after failing to qualify in biathlon. :)

 

Sadly, there are some let's say "challenged" people from skiing clubs who went all out because Crnković got selected in cross-country skiing. According to them biathletes shouldn't be allowed to compete in cross-country because they "already have their sport which they can't change". :crazy:

Day 1: 7.5km classic + 7.5km freestyle, individual start (no medals)

Day 2: 7.5km freestyle + 7.5km classic, pursuit start with the results of day 1 as start intervals (first to finish wins)

 

And then every major championships change the order of C + F / F + C :p

That sounds very logical, meaning no way it's gonna happen. :p
