Biathlon IBU World Cup 2021 - 2022

If one Oebergs shoots clean they will win it  Great race also from Olsbu, Eckhoff has still some things to fix. Also good comeback from the French girls after the disaster yesterday.

Weidel finished less than one second behind direct qualification for the Olympics yesterday, today she finishes one and a half second (and again one position) behind it  

She should make it if she somewhat keeps this up, but damn it'd be a sour taste if she ends up missing out.

 

*qualification should probably say 'nomination', since it's of course not 100% automatic if there's more athletes with these nominations than Germany has tickets

Hanna Öberg!

With the performances of Hinz or Hettich so far, she would be there anyway, but she will be nominated after Ruhpolding. But Weidel seems to be the optimal start runner for the relay next week.

Makes you wonder how Hildebrand and Hammerschmidt would compare to them right now. 

 

Tbh, I even forgot Hinz existed for a moment

We strived for years and years to have a hit rate that's better than 60%.

 

And now that we have a 100% hit rate for Leščinskaitė and 90% for Kočergina, we have completely abandoned our skiing

Eckhoff had 0 WC points after Two races last season and ended up dominating And Hanna Öberg was 73 places better today than yesterday. It can change quick!

JT Boe has a straight ski race with Samuelsson for the win….

If you had told me Canada would have 3 top 10 performances this World cup I would have called you crazy.

 

Wow.
