We had this in cross country before the current skiathlon format (1992-2002). A medal-free race that only set the time difference for the pursuit. It wasn't the best idea though so I doubt we'll see it revived.

As I posted a second ago, in 1992, 94 and 98, they did award medals for the first race.

Two misses for Hojnisz Reztsova has the ski speed to challenge for medals but she also had two misses.

And there used to be archery events with two entries. The key word - "used to".

 

Cross-country skiing reworked their unfair medal events. Biathlon ought to do the same.

They had this in 2002 too but the first part didn't award any medals.

It did have the interesting twist though that Beckie Scott won all 3 medals.

Top five not letting anyone through so far. Someone will probably blow it on the last shoot though

Pursuit is the biggest Olympic fraud ever.
