Nothing live. https://www.broadcastnow.co.uk/broadcasting/warner-bros-discovery-ties-up-biathlon-renewal/5176781.article Slovak TV announced they will cover all races live (I mean Womens obviously, no reason to broadcast mens competition here ) so with a decent vpn, go ahead to rtvs.sk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

heywoodu 13,573 Posted November 28, 2022 #43 Share Posted November 28, 2022 (edited) Why no Slovak single mixed relay though? Isn't the point of the SMR that you only need one man and one woman? Or is it because they'll focus on the mixed only and nobody will do double duty like Tachizaki often does? Edited November 28, 2022 by heywoodu If you'd like to help our fellow Totallympics member Bruna Moura get to the 2026 Winter Olympics, after her car crash on the way to the 2022 Olympics, every tiny bit of help would be greatly appreciated!

JonPhi 247 Posted November 28, 2022 #45 Share Posted November 28, 2022 The World Cup in Le Grand Bornand is currently very much on the line. There is currently no snow at all and none is in sight. heywoodu, Gianlu33, RobtheAggie and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobtheAggie 340 Posted November 28, 2022 #46 Share Posted November 28, 2022 (edited) I actually might be at Le Grand Bornand for the races. We will see. I do remember reading something a while ago that there are really only two options in case a WC has to be cancelled due to lack of snow. 1 - cancel it 2 - stay at the previous week's location or move to the following week location. In that case it would mean stay in Austria for two weeks. The reports are that there is lots of snow stored that they have not put out on the course yet, but we will see.

Apparently our federation is trying to field a "gimmick" Mens relay for the World Champs Since the entry standards are easier for WCh the young junior Damián Cesnek will be allowed to compete and the 4th guy will be 3 years retired hobby-coach Matej Kazár was announced during the press conference. more in this article presenting the new season and goals of the team (The goal is at least one Top 6 for Paja and one Top 10 for Ivona at the WCh...no special goals for WC) https://sport.aktuality.sk/c/VOZg7q8/svetovy-pohar-slovensko-nie-je-schopne-postavit-stafetu-na-ms-mozno-aj-s-nadsencom/ heywoodu 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Werloc 3,127 Posted November 28, 2022 #49 Share Posted November 28, 2022 I wonder off of what rules can Rastorgujevs just come back after a 1.5 year doping ban to start in the World Cup without racing in ibu cup for a WC qualification that is supposed to last a year max.

Natalija Kočergina has been racing two relays a day for probably two years now and she's 37. Usually always did better in the second race. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
