A podium might be possible if we are lucky.

And yeah I'm really impressed. He's becoming very consistent. Remember last year he did 2 penalty loops on the relay.

 

Again fantastic shooting. This guy is doing very very well. I´m very pleasantly amazed by his form so far

 

Also great result for Ukraine mens relay and first great result for their coach our Juraj Sanitra

Fourcade, come on....don't do that

Also a nice result for people who had two bets:

 

1. Russia not to win

2. Italy to beat Bulgaria AND Ukraine to beat Switzerland

so most ikely 15th place. Not bad. I was afraid especially by our 2 last legs---Otčenáš for his shooting and Šíma for his run, but Otčenáš was great today. Šíma can not be faster, so we have to do with it, 15th is not bad. Good job guys !

Damn, top 10 was so close and with great shooting. Sadly, everyone else also shot great.

So 14th finally, Sweden has been disqualified.

Well 5th place I'm very happy with. Krcmar amazing as always this season, Moravec and Krupcik did what they could, Slesingr I expected to shoot better but still a good performance. 

Also great to see Slovenia doing well, they shot amazingly, and were in the TV broadcast for a lot of the race  

Now the women's race... if Charvatova can pull it together, I think we have a shot at victory.
