On countback Wierer would have won it anyway, her individual results are 1st, 4th & 9th. Hauser's are 1st, 4th & 38th so she got lucky with the stupid cut-off rule.

I get annoyed regularly by those two from British Eurosport, so often switch to ad-free coverage. I do miss some talk during races, but it's still more enjoyable.

I can not even remember the last time I watched biathlon on ES. Always on Czech TV, these folks really love biathlon, I mean really love.

They also show almost everything from the wnter sports season so I basically switch to our TV only for Alpine Skiing and ice hockey, otherwise I have almost all the time ČT Sport turned on my TV

Tarjei Boe 2/5. 
 

Oh dear, Ponsiluoma 3/5.

 

All the big names missing at the moment.

 

Simon Eder first potential medallist to get 5/5

In Poland we had two guys who used to do cycling in the summer and biathlon in the winter for ES. After Polsat Sport bought the rights on the heels of 2013-15 Polish women success one of those guys went there to join Weronika Nowakowska and Tomasz Sikora joined Eurosport. I have to say the old pairing was the best even though they focused on off-course action a lot (like the color of women's eye-lashes or new boots or rifles). Sikora tends to provide more background information like what does the housing looks like in different venues or other stuff. I quit watching ARD coverage like 5 years ago and I'm back to the oldest source in Eurosport for good

But he's way too slow on skis to win it even with 20/20 IMO.

[Grassmarket 4,030]

JT Boe 14/15 & big lead.

 

Claude 19/20, will fall a long way

 

Laegreid 10/10

Hasilla really do want race with Paja in the single mixed relay
