No sign of any TV coverage for the Individual or Sprint, but Saturday & Sunday’s races do get covered.  Think that’s normal.

I am actually excited to see Arber.  On the IBU Cup highlights it is only the range, start and finish.  It will be nice to see the entire course.

Congrats to Aspenes.  He was 20 seconds behind Babikov after shooting #4, but won by 10 seconds.  Not sure if Babikov had a terrible last lap, or if Aspenes paced himself that well.

Looks like plenty of snow in Arber

Women's 15km Individual:

 

Only three shot clean.

Cervenka goes 0-0 in the sprint!  He might be able to hold onto the 10th spot.

Cervenka just missed it and ended up in 12th place.

Blowing a gale in Bavaria, going to make for some exciting shooting visits.

 

Emelian Claude the only one to deal with it.

 

Sheer luck for Aspenes, he gets 30 seconds of calm & everyone else gets a gale.

Women getting the same horrible shooting conditions as the men.

 

Oh dear Elise Gasparin 0/5

 

Lordy Chauveau & Gerbulova both also 0/5.
