Biathlon IBU Cup 2018 - 2019

[Kirkpatrick 144]

Don't think I've seen IBU Cup race, does the IBU streams the race via eurovisionsports.tv like World Cup races?

No, IBU Cup is only shown in highlight videos on the competition days.

Thanks. That's a shame. I assume there's no stream at all, outside IBU?

Maybe there's some local TV station or something, but I've never seen it. I can somewhat imagine this happening in Norway or Sweden (though I doubt it), I've never seen any other TV crew than IBU's small one (or a screen with live images instead of just the standings) at the IBU Cups in Martell, Lenzerheide, Obertilliach or Arber.

There's someone from Ireland competing. I can't remember any Irish biathletes before now?

I strictly remember there were Irish men in the IBU cup before.

Brian Kennedy has competed in the IBU Cup in the 2016/17 season in Kontiolahti. 

 

I also found some results from a guy named Colum O'Farrell

I suspect Lithuania did not start in this sprint? Because we certainly would have seen them somewhere between 70 to 80?

Hey Kuaknas (spelled wrong, sorry) did very well in Pyeongchang he was one of surprises of the games for me.
