I‘m not sure if Austria have any chances tomorrow. The athletes behind Hauser are not that convincing than last year.

That was sarcasm

haha Baloga escaped from LAP by literally 2 seconds and now the organizers will have to wait the whole eternity until he will complete the last lap alone

This 14th place is so weird when everybody apart from Kaukėnas performed far below their standards.

 

Like, for us to finish 14th, we needed to do something good. Now it just feels as if other teams around us just looked even worse than our bad day. 

 

This could've been a very good opportunity for a historical top 10, but the first two legs from our leaders were awful.

10th place for Romania  this is a very good results and we have a really good chance to qualify to Olympics.

France with a very bad tactic tomorrow. Bescond on first leg and Simon and third  They should switch the two, and also Braisaz on anchor with her problems in the prone shooting 

 

Sweden will be hot favorite with Persson - Brorsson - Oeberg E - Oeberg H

 

Also good Teams from Germany, Russia, Norway and especially Belarus

US men did pretty well.  They had to penalty loops and still managed to finish in 12th place.  Not too bad.  The women's Pursuit was a lot of fun to watch!

[RobtheAggie 340]

The US men have closed the gap on Austria for the 10th Nations Cup spot.  It looks like this may be a battle all year.  That 10th spot is so important as it provides a 5th starting spot.  The Women currently sit in 15th.  Considering that Susan Dunklee has done very little so far this season, it is possible that they could also challenge for the 10th spot.
