That's it.   Kaisa Makarainen has announced retirement today.   I'm losing my favourite athlete of all time and I doubt that I'll ever find a biathlete that I can support more than

What a shame, we nearly had a historical competition for Lithuania, where all three athletes would have made the pursuit.   Unfortunately, Kaukėnas will fall down to 61st   But, it

Second Chinese guy dropping from 3rd after shooting four to 8th at the exchange, lost 40+ seconds in the last lap. Ouch :p

Allez les bleus!  :cheer:

 

Should be winning every week, though.

With the quality they've got, every non-win is a big disappointment indeed.

Yes, that's a whole lot of big disappointments. Although especially this season losing seems like a shock when you've got half of the top-8 biathletes in the world in your team.

Thank you so much.  I wonder here and n the US if Fort Kent still has an A.  Lake Placid and Valcartier in Canada might as well.  I would assume that Jericho, Bozeman, West Yellowstone, and Auburn, Can have a B.  There are a few note that if there is a C, they would have that.  Canada has around a dozen or so that host local to national events.

 

I wonder if Nagano has kept their venue up?  Also Beijing, (I forgot the actual name) would need to be A when it is finished.  

 

I appreciate the list a lot.

Nozawa Onsen was only the back-up biathlon venue for 1998 OG and it's a ski resort first and foremost. I don't think the range is still there, the official site shows all kinds of skiing slopes and half-pipe which is far more popular in Japan than biathlon.

 

The "A' license is up for renewal every 8 years at most. I doubt whether third string US venues still have the 'A' license when for example the second Norwegian venue in Sjusjoen only has a "B" license. Presque Isle has probably rendered Lake Placid pretty moot in the NE area. Local events can be hosted at "C" license venues tbh.

 

There are some new venues in Latvia (Madona) and Estonia (Haasja) that are on the "B" license as well. Duszniki Arena in Poland have been upgraded to "B" in 2017.

And doesn't Beijing have an A license? Or just not yet? Since they're getting a World Cup in the pre-Olympic season (and well, the Olympics :p ).

Well, it will obviously get one but probably on a temporary basis. I seriously doubt IBU stages a World Cup round there except for the pre-Olympic test and the WOG.

Oh they most definitely won't :d I don't think we'll ever see Pyeongchang again neither, the world championships there showed how dead it is.

Khanty-Mansiysk made hosting the WC races in Pyeongchang even remotely possible, now with the Russian venues banned there's no point in going to Korea for a one-off event. Everyone would probably skip it anyway :p

      @hckošice, even though Tomankova lost, she had a good fight against Costa, I think soon she and Babulfath will be the stars of -48kg.
