Biathlon 2016 - 2017 Discussion Thread

^ Everything is unofficial so far. It's between :NOR Holmenkollen and :FIN Kontiolahti.

:BLR Raubichi are in but they have no chances.

Our male team wanted :KAZ Almaty (after Universiade), our female team roots for Holmenkollen.

 

 

ps. FIS suspended 6 Russian skiers (including Legkov & Vylegzhanin). All of them took part in Sochi Olympics (4 medals). I guess all these cases in other winter sports will influence biathlon too.

Iryna Starykh is listed in the start list of the Russian competitions tomorrow.

Alexandr Loginov won the individual race.

 

Meanwhile Glazyrina won't start which heated rumours about her doping ban.

Some news from SVK team, After long discussions between our coaches and national federation, it was decided that we must compete at each World cup stage in order to maintain the 10 olympic quotas. so we will start also in Oberhof, but not in full composition.

 

only 3 mens and 2 womens will compete in Oberhof.

 

Men

Tomáš Hasilla

Martin Otčenáš

Michal Kubaliak

 

Women

Jana Gereková

Terézia Poliaková

* Anastasiya Kuzmina was given a "free choice" so she and her miniteam will announce her final decision if or not competing in Obehof in the next days.

 

 

The good news is that we will also compete in PyeongChang World cup stage with a full team 4 + 4

Yes. We will not send anyone to the first IBU Cup January stages in Martell, because it´s the highest situated biathlon venue and our athletes aren´t apparently prepared for that, source our biathlon national team coaches :dunno: and they will prefer to use this time for training camp and preparation for the upcomming European Championships which are the top goal of our so called "B" team. meanwhile we will compete the next stage in Arber but we will send only 2 mens Ondrej Kosztolányi and the junior Simon Bartko, and only 1 women Alžbeta Majdišová.

Anastasiya Kinnunen (Dubarezava) left the Belarusian team after Pokljuka - she's pregnant :d

 

Domracheva will come back in Oberhof as planned.

Ahahahaah, tough guy Fourcade wants to boycott the whole World Cup, but only after he drags other top names with him. If you are going to talk big, better be ready to do it chappie..

    • Qualification status that could realistically change this week, barring (except where noted) new time qualifying performances :   Men   500m : pretty much done   1000m : pretty much done   1500m : pretty much done   5000m : one outlier at the moment  Semirunniy. He's currently not qualified for the distance being 18/15 in the rankings and R1 time-wise. He could still punch his ticket :    either by getting into the top 15 with a very good result (a podium or even a win would be needed). If it is at the expanse of  Henriksen or, less likely,  Swings, then the loser is out. If it is at the expanse of any other, then  Sasaki is out.  or by hoping Lorello gets into the top 15 at the expanse of Henriksen or Swings. or by going faster than Sasaki (6'08''834) which seems reachable after his 10k, even in Hamar.   10000m : once again Henriksen is on the bubble. If  Maly, Petzold of  Farthofer gets into the top 9 at the expanse of Malfatti or Snellink, then he's out.    Mass-start : not much at stake considering most of the reserve skaters will already receive an additional quota - at the moment    . Morino  will try to enter top 32 and be in those additional quota spots.    Team pursuit : pretty much done   Women   500m : pretty much done   1000m : with  Thorup not cleared to participate one more spot is up for grabs.  Scholz would need to be in front of both Herzog (done as she's not entered) and Czerwonka (7 points) after this final week.  Silaeva would be left out.    1500m : Lamarche not competing and  Zofia Braun being promoted to A division, Poland has got a real shot at a second quota. Braun will need to stay in front of Scholz and Weidemann, who could still finish ahead of her depending on how good Braun fares in A division.  Smedding would suffer from a Polish rise.   3000m : match-up between  Yang and  Horikawa only separated by 3 points. At the moment Yang is out (R2) but if they exchange position in the standings then Horikawa is out (R1). They could also both finish ahead of Hofmann, at the expanse of  Golubeva ultimately.  Jasch has a small shot at a second German quota too, by edging the former two skaters, eliminating them.    5000m : pretty much done   Mass-start :  Santo Rodrigues is hanging on by a thread. The cruelty of it is that those immediately behind her -    - will get an aditional spot anyways, so it does not really matter if they finish in the top 24 ahead of her, except it would allow France to enter a second skater and two girls in the MS.   Team pursuit : three-way asymetrical tie for the last SOQP spot between   and , all in division A. Norway needs to beat both as they can't rely on a time Q, Kazakhstan needs to beat Norway to ensure (if they fail to beat China) the first SOQT spot and avoid the Italian wild-card*, whereas China is pretty safe. *  is currently out but they "only" need to get into a reserve spot to be qualified, which is going faster than 3'00'92 (or faster than Norway if they too decide to skate faster). They were not far off this mark in Hamar earlier this year but the team was in a better shape overall.
