Yup, I was very happy to see the diversity, hoping that it extends past the junior years.

 

Also, excited to see South Korea with full junior squads, they could've easily pulled a "China" after their Olympics, but they stayed invested in the sport and even stopped importing Russians.

But no Norway or France (or Russia) + many of the best talents are Competing in Senior IBU Cup instead. Those Things will have to be Kept in mind when Looking at the results.

Actually the lack of those teams, plus Belarus and the US as well make me even more encouraged.   I have no issues at all when people "play up" a level if they are ready.  It is often best for their long term development.  I am just excited to see lots of nations making an effort to be there.

Convincing win for Scattolo from Italy (Born 2003). I think she has the quality to finish Top 10-15 in the Senior IBU Cup with Good shooting. Hard to imagine that the Italian IBU Cup Team is Too Strong for her to make the Team. Hopefully she will get a chance soon. Andexer from Austria and Zorc from Slovenia also with promising skiing times. Only the top 2 were within a minute, so that isn’t a good sign for the overall depth (with France/Norway/Russia missing).

Just a little sidenote: for Brazil I'm 99,99% sure it's just for the free IBU money one (read: the federation) gets for starting a race and they don't at all care about the results (at least the shooting part, I suppose they simply use it - other than for the free money - to get some more racing rhythm for the cross-country races) :p 

 

Could well be the same for other small nations of course, but that I don't know.

9 shot clean in the women's race, but one was over 8 min behind, while shooting clean.  

 

I actually missed a nation, Chile is there, but she struggled.  9 missed shots and +32 min back.

 

If you look at the winning time of about 24 min.  Figure that each lap was 7:30 for her.  Everyone from spot 70th on back would have been lapped at least once by her, and some multiple times.  

 

I guess this speaks to the lack of depth.  But on the positive side of things, this also speaks to the initial success of the more focused efforts of the IBU to invest in Regional Development.

But, Congrats Cloetens for getting a podium for Belgium!:BEL

And not with shooting luck or something, but the very fastest skiing time of all, with only one other girl within 20 seconds of her and only four other girls within a minute :yikes:

    • I won't write about injuries (Fede) and non-sporting matters (Colturi), but the fact is that Italy has its worst start to the season in alpine skiing in over 10 years... Just one victory, and podiums- if any, they're mostly 3 places. We're also not leading in any of the season standings, no in the women's or men's categories. This isn't be it should be in an Olympic year in your country, where you're having your worst season in many years.
    • Plaisier blew 3 match darts and Ratajski comes back to win!    
    • Yes, she was unlucky, but it could just as easily have happened during some training, like with Gut, etc. Brignone has been essentially injury-free throughout her long career, which is very rare in this sport. It's unfortunate that this happened after her best season ever and just 1 year before the Olympic Games in home, when she just missing of win the Olympic gold medal in her great career. With the gold in Cortina, she would have become a legend of Italian skiing, on par with Tomba. Now she's still the best Italian woman in history, but the miss of Olympic gold will likely haunt her for the rest of her life. 
    • It sad to see this season, as I remember, that Fede last year was winning everywhere, when she competed and finished and now we haven't even managed a single podium in the giant slalom, and it'll probably stay that way until the end of the season. Without Fede and Bassino, unfortunately, we're out of good cards in this event. For me Goggia should probably skip the giant slalom at all, becouse she has no chance of a podium and she risks further injuries. If even Goggia finish 8th or 10th? What difference does it make? If she couldn't get a podium finish today with so many DNFs at the top skiers, she probably never do. Della Mea is OK this year, but let's be honest, she's not World Cup podium material. Overall, it's a sad picture, and we have a 0% chance of anything in Cortina unless a miracle happens in Brignone return.   We have two chances for Goggia in DH and SG + maybe a dark horse in Pirovano/Curtoni in SG. That's all. In technical events, we have a 0% chance for medal and that's sad. Our federation also lost Colturi in this situation... In any normal country, the head of such a federation should be dismissed for disciplinary reasons and this case should be investigated by the minister, or even the prime minister, but not in Italy...
    • Mikaela Shiffrin  off the podium today (Edit: Oops...I thought this was slalom, not Giant Slalom.).  Nina Astner  entered the 2nd run in 30th place, but had the best second run, jumping up 18 places to 12th.
    • Maryna Gąsienica-Daniel with a 5th place PB in Semmering GS! 
    • Today RDC will defeat Senegal  and Tunisia 0-0 Nigeria
