the pair Mokhova/Domichek composed of both yesterdays individuals clear winners finished in the mixle singles only 7th. a minute and 10 seconds behind the "hosts"

 

frst medal of the games for

[hckošice 16,630]

and our team beat 8 teams but must be said it was composed of both athletes who finished the worse in their individuals yesterday, the higher ranked are saved for normal mixed relay

 

In other hand solid 18th place after 1st run of GS of Rebeka jančová with bib 33. sadly the gap is too high with +2 seconds behind the leader. Anyway not really got how the starting ranking was set, how can girls from Norway have much higher starting bibs than girls from Chile, Andorra or Hungary

I don't know, but maybe Chilean and Andorran athletes can get good FIS points easier than Norwegians?
