Yes it is. I love "he who must not be named"  is Martin Fourcade.

I bet this would have been great if I understood a word in German

The start lists for tomorrow's Single Mixed Relay and Mixed Relay from the IBU Cup in Ridnaun/Val Ridanna have been published.

The German team is giving IBU Cup debut to one of their biathletes in the single mixed relay. Some of you hardcore and die-hard biathlon fans will probably recognise her.

Yeah, RIP Gabi

 

Although I'm kinda sad it's not Bruna who will do the SMR for Brazil now.

It's actually weird to think how Dahlmeier was such a talented prospect that she got to skip the IBU cup step all-together. I still remember when she was up and coming in the WCH and many questioned Germany putting her in responsible relay positions. She had nerves of steel.

Austrian police came to Russians few hours ago & blamed people from this list in anti-doping rules violation during the WCH 2017:

Yeah, that was the moment she instantly became my favourite biathlete, making her debut on the senior level by bringing Germany from 8th (?) to 1st in the WCH relay

What exactly does this mean? Have they actually arrested someone?
