Biathlon IBU World Cup 2018 - 2019

Or not?

 

Shame about Egan.

[Monzanator 4,501]

Oeberg should just hold on...

This was a pretty good final women's race

[Kirkpatrick 144]

Annoying how Makarainen is just an unimportant blimp in the second part of the season.

Great race to finish the season.  The fight in Tiril always impresses me, the girl deserves so much more. Bravo Egan, shades for what's to come next season maybe.

 

Wierer

So, next season, who's gonna fight for the overall win?  

 

Wierer

Vittozzi

Eckhoff

Dahlmeier

Herrmann

Öberg

Roeiseland

Egan

 

Quite some potential.

[Monzanator 4,501]

Well, this was a very good season on the women's side considering how one-sided the men's was. Maybe this overall success gives Wierer an extra boost to keep going until the 2022 WOG? Vittozzi was pretty impressive but crumbled mentally when it mattered the most. Herrmann proved to be the best of the Germans and quite frankly she can challenge for the overall next season IMO. Also Monika Hojnisz finished in the overall Top 10 as the second ever after Krystyna Guzik in 2015/16.

"So much pressure!" in this race apparently.

Will he get 16 wins?! The big question since the invention of biathlon.

[heywoodu 15,135]

Wierer basically saying she's gonna make up for months without her partner in the hotel room tonight

They better have some good sound isolation.

 

Quote

Interviewer: "So now, going to the hotel, getting in bed under your sheets and sleep for the rest of the week?"
Wierer: "Yeah I'm going to the hotel, going to get some good sleep and uh....no haha, can't say that!" (while laughing and getting red)
Interviewer: "Oh maybe it's gonna be a bit different?"
Wierer: "Yeah maybe..!"
