I would've never believed before the race started that Fabien Claude would be the weakest French of the relay... luckily for him he wasn't the only one to shoot badly and there will still be a podium at the end (podium I never believed would happen either honestly! :yikes:)

There is not much left of Johannes Luka's pre-season announcement that they are the strongest women's team in the World Cup. With the exception of Hanna Oeberg, they have completely lost their form.

They won 6 medals at the world championships this year, twice as many as the second best nation (Germany) and as many as Germany, Norway and France combined. They were also the only nation with more than one individual medalist and they did that all with their (potentially) best athlete (Elvira Öberg) barely contributing anything. Not sure if they were/are the best nation in the world cup, but they were lightyears ahead of every other nation at this season's most important competition.

 

Something else that can't be missed when looking at past results:

The "absence" of Russia/Austria on the men's side and Russia/Ukraine on the women's side is clearly hurting the depth/competitiveness.
