No doubt. Fortunately for her the individual sprint in Beijing is freestyle this time around, so that's her best bet for a medal.  And it we saw what happened in PyeongChang against an ultra fast Swede in a freestyle sprint!

The Sprint at the Olympics will be really tough, this could be an advantage for Diggins and her Distance skills.

French sprinters still doing great. Hopefully they can keep it that way until Beijing.

They will leave the Tour after Lenzerheide. For me incomprehensible why you do not take Oberstdorf and thus lose important points in the Sprint World Cup. Before the Olympics, there is only one more sprint in Les Rousses.

  Quote

Due to critical snow conditions, the choice of courses and - as a consequence - also the competition

The event preparation group by FIS, the Norwegian Ski Federation (NSF) and the organizing committee evaluated options and accepted the proposal from the NSF to schedule the following competitions instead of the previously planned Skiathlon:

 

 

Saturday, 4th December 2021

10am CET     10km F Interval Start Women

12pm CET     15km F Interval Start Men

 

The courses will set out and return from the Biathlon venue, located next to the Birkebeineren Ski Stadium.

According to a German cross-country portal, there is a lack of snow in Lillehammer :NOR and the cross-country competitions will probably be moved to the biathlon stadium, where trails are already prepared. A decision should be made shortly where and whether the World Cup will take place.

Meh. Vermeulen stapped on Brugger's ski binding, Brugger lost his ski in the middle of the 3rd leg, leaving them with no chance. Fucked up home WCh for German CC team so far.

Such a bad performance ... it was very easy in this heat to qualify for the final. Ladies are in the final, but I think no real medal chance.

Team sprint qualifying is different than in the World Cup :yikes: 

 

Top-4 from both heats plus the two fastest losers. That's way better than the World Cup format.

This rule is only due to the war, weather. Because the second semi final could have a much slower course.

 

„Sunday schedule ? @oberstdorf2021

Since the course conditions from Semi Final 1 to Semi Final 2 can change a lot with the current snow, the qualification rules have been adapted under agreement with teams, Cross-Country and Rules & Control committee that top-4 teams from each Semi Final will be qualified plus 2 by the time. „
