Biathlon IBU World Cup 2020 - 2021

[Grassmarket 3,403]

JT Boe already in trouble with two misses.

 

Tarjei OTOH 0 0 in Bib #2

 

Rastorguevs in trouble with the drug testers with three whereabouts failures over the last year - DNS today.  Frankly it’s his optician they need to be questioning.  
 

Lucas Hofer finally gets his 0 0 - into third for now.

[Werloc 3,164]

I don't know if anybody tracks stuff like this, but I think I might have broken the Biathlon Manager world record today  

 

The second thing that I can be happy about after this race is that Hofer finally found a way back on the podium, FINALLY. 

 

Third best career result for Linas Banys and best shot from the Lithuanian team today, everybody is tumbling downhill like an alpine skiing gold medalist, but at least Linas looks fresh and better than the first half of the season.

First ever sprint win for Fillon-Maillet, well deserved after all his top 6 lately 

Finally a podium for Hofer! Once again very well deserved, he's been in good form since January and it finally pays

 

Guigonnat, that last target...  but 6th place and his best individual result in... 2 years? (his silver medal at the Ostersund Wch) I'm so happy that he's back, he even had the 3rd skiing time today! 

 

Johannes Boe and his shooting this year

I'd rather take an unhappy Guigonnat than a Hofer with his 73rd 4th place this season

BIU Provisionally Suspends Andrejs Rastorgujevs

 

"The athlete has now two weeks to respond to the decision. In order to protect the integrity of this ongoing case, the BIU will make no further comment at the current time."

[Monzanator 4,499]

Polish team won't make the trip to Ostersund citing difficult return experience from last season and the fact the standings are more or less decided.

 

Vittozzi 2/5. Herrmann & Wierer 5/5.

[Monzanator 4,499]

Eckhoff 9/10 but still ahead of Herrmann 10/10 after second shoot

[Bohemia 1,411]

When are we gonna see a new sprint winner on the women's side 

[Kirkpatrick 144]

Now Herrman is slower with 10/10 vs 9/10. Sigh.

 

 

 

Come on, Davidova.
