And another four hits for our Totallympian, excellent! And she shot pretty fast by the looks of it, especially the last two shots (2.5 and 3.3 seconds) were definitely faster than normal  

 

Qu is missing out with three hits, too bad.

And a third clean shooting for Weidel! Kruchinkina is on her tail by 6 seconds there but just missed three (!) in the last shooting so is as good as out, Merkushyna, Shevnina and Andersson are all within the margin of one miss.

Lots of good shooting so far.  If the tracks are as poor as you say, ski times will be very slow today.

Yesterday she said it was terrible and judging by today's weather (wet, 6 degrees) I highly doubt it improved

And another four hits!  Too bad that, like in the first prone shooting, the very first one missed...that can be better

Damn it, Weidel missed the 19th shot! But ends with 19 hits and goes into the last lap 11 seconds behind clean Merkushyna....this can be tight, come on!

Weidel gets to within 10 seconds at the last split, but she'll fall short of catching Merkushyna. Too bad, but still a very good race.

Once again, there are some late starters that should keep this interesting until the end.  Skottheim is only 20 sec back, despite one muss after 2nd shooting.

And, as I posted that, she misses two more.

And Stefanie Scherer even takes over the lead at shooting 2!
