Stremous 0+0

 

Should be first points for Moldova this season.

I believe TV director wanted to show Wierer at the start but was late and showed Stremous instead. Unlikely air time for Moldova

Yulia Dzhima with a rare podium shot in other race than individual.

 

Tandrevold 10/10 but loses to Wierer's 9/10.

 

Vittozzi & Alimbekava 10/10. Suddenly everyone hits in the stand.

 

Olsbu 8/10 and just two seconds behind Wierer.

Is that a 5th sprint victory for Eckhoff?

[Monzanator 4,579]

Eckhoff gained 20 secs over Dzhima on the last lap

Cadurisch probably threw away a podium with one miss...

Two shootings air time for Amanda Lightfoot. Must be first time ever?

Oh well Sola could have medalled with even 9/10 better ski speed then all the Germans , Swedes and Russians .

10/10 for Lou Jeanmonnot

I suspect some girls were partying after World Champs. Davidova's ski time looks suspiciously slow and Alimbekava basically crawled around on the last lap. Tandrevold also a very slow time, when a Norwegian shoots 10/10 and doesn't make the podium it's really bad skiing-wise.

At the world championships they weren’t exactly flying either in the sprint. Alimbekava had the 22nd best time (46.6 seconds behind Chevalier-Bouchet), Tandrevold had the 14th best time (37.1 seconds behind) and Davidova had the 12th best time (36.1 seconds behind). Today Davidova was 12th, Alimbekava was 11th and Tandrevold was 10th, so they actually did better than at worlds, you could say that they rather overperformed today.
