Did you know that Bastian was pretty much on the same level as Felix in alpine skiing when they were younger, but then Bastian decided to focus on football?

They were best friends from a very young age on and often competed against each other.

About Gössner: Great success for her, hopefully she will also have some success next season, although i doubt it, her shooting is just too bad.

Does anyone know what the quotas for nations in the WC will be for 2016/17 and if they will follow the same format as last year?

I'm guessing it's the same as last year..

Article 15.4 

 

With also the rule that an athlete has to have a result of 125 or less IBU points before being allowed to start, but for most WC nations that shouldn't be a problem.
