This can't be correct, can it? Dahlmeier is registered for the Sesongstart of this week.

 I know Dahlmeier has been sick, but thus it really affect her age that much. :lol:

The International Biathlon Union (IBU) has notified the Kazakh Biathlon Union that nine members of the Kazakhstan biathlon team are provisionally suspended, according to Article 7.9 in connection with Article 7.11. of the IBU Anti-Doping Rules.

In order to guarantee fair competitions that are not affected by the substantial risk of doping sanctions, the following members of the Kazakhstan Biathlon team are provisionally suspended from participating in any IBU-sanctioned competitions with immediate effect, pending the final decision of a hearing into the alleged Anti-Doping Rule Violations (ADRVs):

- Galina VISHNEVSKAYA

- Alina RAIKOVA

- Darya KLIMINA-USSANOVA

- Olga POLTORANINA

- Yan SAVITSKY

- Maxim BRAUN

- Anna KISTANOVA

- Anton PANTOV

- Vassiliy POTKORYTOV

The review and provisional suspensions are based on criminal investigations in Austria and Italy. The provisionally suspended athletes are now given the chance to provide the IBU with an adequate explanation of the alleged ADRV. The IBU will then decide on what further proceedings are taken.

Not the best news for Kazakh Biathlon. Yeremin is fast on a pair of ski, but his shooting is...well...

I swear Yeremin can win World Cups within 1-2 years if he has a decent skiing day and an extremely rare good shooting day.

    • Unfortunate, but it doesn't change the fact that I'm looking forward to Thursday evening, when the team captain's meeting is over and we have our very first World Cup start list of the season. Always a cool moment to see who's there and everything  
    • Today I unpacked some of the boxes in which we have put my way too many books to move to our house, and I came across these beauty's I hadn't seen for a while     Absolutely recommended, tough to get for a decent price, but they are such an interesting read with lots of very interesting little stories! Still looking for at least 1900, 1904 and 1906, but not really in the right moment to spend money on that now, so the wait goes on  
    • Which I guess is part of why unfortunately 'our' first wild card attempt of the season was rejected last week  
    • The next chapter in the Krasnobaeva saga is upon us.   Looks like  Armenia have cut ties with her after only a few weeks. A person from their Federation has said, that they won't continue the relationship, because of her unprofessional and rude attitude towards the coaches and other officials. That includes: - having no respect to the coaches and their advise; - training without any motivation; - stops doing the routine and throws objects without any reason; - just lays on the floor and ignores the music.   When this was escalated with her mother, she mentioned that "Elvira has a strong temper and she was the same in Bulgaria and they tolerated her". Which of course is complete BS. If anyone attempted this shit here, they would be thrown out immediately.   And now  are wanting from her mother to return all finances they gave them, which she is refusing, so they will probably sue them. They will also inform other RG Federations about this situation, so they don't hire them.   My 2 cents on this is most likely Krasnobaeva was happy in BG and was forced out by her mother, so now she is sabotaging the move and be done with it.
    • Honestly Ruka is my favourite World Cup event of the whole season. Everybody is there. Later on there is always someone who skips one weekend or another . Not everybody takes part in Tour de ski. But here everyone shows up.
