Biathlon IBU World Cup 2022 - 2023

What an exciting race compared to the men's pursuit!

 

I'm gonna be chauvinistic for a bit : first 20/20 for Julia Simon and the victory after starting 16th, Caroline Colombo 20/20 and top 6, her best result ever! Sophie Chauveau 19th despite 3 misses (she had one of the fastest ski times!), so many things to be happy about in this race for this team :wub:

 

It's such a relief and a joy to see Vittozzi back at her best level, too bad she missed the podium in the end :( And Emma Lunder once again in the top 6 :clap:

Really refreshing to finally have a Lithuanian biathlete that is actually elite level after so many years of wondering if we'll score points this season, now you're expecting points every single race and mass starts a plenty.

 

Diana Rasimovičiūtė was excellent, but she didn't have the resources that Strolia has right now. One of the biggest what ifs in Lithuanian sports history, because she went toe to toe with Makarainen in her junior years.

 

Tomas Kaukėnas only really showed up during the majors, which are somewhat easier due to the limited country quotas during the competition.

 

So Vytautas is pushing Lithuanian biathlon to a place where it never was before and it's a question if things are going to look this good ever again.

 

Still, happy that after 16 years of following biathlon, I can also enjoy some glory days :p

That was a fun women's race indeed, although my favourites unfortunately didn't do great this time :p

 

Anyhow, enjoyable fight for the podium places and a fantastic weekend for Emma Lunder!

But there is other good news today. Le Grand Bornand got the green light from the IBU thanks to numerous truckloads of snow from the mountains. Nevertheless, there is still a lot of work ahead of the organizers. Thus, there should be quite a folk festival again, even if it should be a bit more wintry outside :d.

    • Weightlifting formula is more or less similar to 2020 which was considered terrible by everybody!    this is a tough sport, you can't be in your best shape for too many events. there will be risks of serious injuries this way. with these rules you need 5 good results to qualify. if you bomb out in an event to score a zero you are out of the Olympics unless you replace it with another event. which means most of these poor guys have to participate in 7-8 events (and not just 5) to make up for possible bomb outs.    most importantly if you get injured anytime during this period (almost 2 years) you are out of the Olympics! that's how Sohrab Moradi missed the Tokyo Olympics despite breaking the WR during the qualification period. you can miss the Olympics in 2028 if you get injured late 2026 !  Karlos Nasar couldn't win the Olympic title if we had these rules in 2024   I understand 2024 qualification formula wasn't great either, it had its own flaws but this one is much worse for threatening athletes' health. 
    • Marian Kasprzyk (boxing) - 1964 Olympic Champion & 1960 bronze medallist passed away at the age of 86.
    • It was removed the next day.
    • Someone made this Statue Trump---Epstein     mysterious bronze statue called “Best Friends Forever” has popped up on the east end of the National Mall in Washington, DC,    https://www.nytimes.com/2025/09/24/us/politics/trump-epstein-statue-dc-national-mall.html    
    • Off to Milan for the 145th session of the International Olympic Committee. Although the agenda has not been published yet, there shouldn’t be any major items over these two days, apart from the election of a member of the IOC Executive Board. This will be the eighth time the session is held in Italy, the last one being during the Turin 2006 Olympic Games.
    • another wave of mega rain is coming in north Africa 
    • What is happening in Canada , people leave it  They say life is very expensive , you cant find an appartement , the salary is miserable    is it the multi tax of Trump? 
    • Weightlifting We now have six events per gender with a total of 10 athletes per event.   The Olympic Qualification Rankings will be based on the sum of the total results of five events (three from period 1 and two from period 2). The top 8 will qualify.   The 9th spot will also be based on the OQR, but it will go to the highest ranked athlete from an unrepresented continent.   The 10th spot will be split between the host and universality (3 each per gender). Should the United States qualify normally then their host quota will be reduced, first going to an athlete from an unrepresented continent then to the overall highest ranked athlete.   Additionally, a "Best Lifter" will be awarded which would give the nation the chance to qualify 4 athletes rather than the max of 3.
