In another slo-mo finish. Looked as if she barely tried, or maybe that's just the Pokljuka finish effect. #banbestmen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OlympicsFan 791 Posted February 20, 2021 #378 Share Posted February 20, 2021 What a surprising turnaround. I don’t even want to imagine what would have been possible without a roadblock like Hettich. Somehow German coaches always find a way to sabotage their own team, I still have nightmares from the 2010 Olympics ... Norway certainly deserved the gold, but them dominating biathlon is the worst thing that can happen to this sport. They already ruined cross-country. Biathlon relays, especially on the women’s side, are among the most unpredictable team events, much better than pointless events like cross-country/luge/ski jumping/Nordic combined team events.

Wow, really weird. Usually French ladies are very good in cross-country, certainly better than Germany for example. At least their men make up for it.

OlympicsFan 791 Posted February 20, 2021 #380 Share Posted February 20, 2021 It feels as if Ukraine almost always overperforms in the relay. Normally they shouldn’t beat Russia/France/Sweden that often. Attachment is the great fabricator of illusions; reality can be obtained only by someone who is detached.
