Biathlon 2021 - 2022 Discussion Thread


Recommended Posts

A handful of Lithuanian biathletes are going to start their biathlon season next weekend in the Norwegian championships.

 

It's nice that we're back after missing the championships last year.

In France for the first time, similar to Norway, the qualification for the Olympic Games ends after the fifth World Cup in Ruhpolding. Results from Antholz will no longer be taken into account, according to Stephane Bouthiaux, Head of Biathlon France.

I saw this today and thought it would be an interesting discussion point.

 

No photo description available.

 

Any chance that Tarjei Boe moves past Dratchev?  Does Johannes Tinges Boe pass Martin Fourcade in wins?  I do not think that he will compete long enough to pass him in anything other than wins.

 

Any idea who else would be near these numbers?  One other thing, with an additional week on the schedule, there is at least 3 more victories/podiums now.

Here is the women's one:

 

No photo description available.

 

With a season like last year, Eckhoff can raise to 2nd on this list.  Wierer is the only other active biathlete on this list.

Idre has been available un-geoblocked in the past & biathlon is scheduled this weekend.  Sjusjoen has turned up on YT, though not always live.

Said of SVT Play for the Idre races, the Norwegian events are live on NRK 1 (the main public tv channel in Norway)...

 

https://tv.nrk.no/guide/13-11-2021

 

most likely, they will not be available live because their website is very well protected and need a registration and a national code, but for sure, once they are over, they will be available for everybody (even without a VPN) as archived programs through their android/androidTV/iOS app...just in case they won't be uploaded on YT like it happened last year...

    • I love that it is more straightforward in relation to the number of quotas and does not allow possible problems as it was in Tokyo and Paris.
    • I love the judo qualification system, for me is the best in all disciplines. It combines a strong circuit, and it allows 100 or so countries to participate in.   So, maybe, if UWW does its job properly, it will be a good thing.
    • China Media Group (CMG) will broadcast all 116 gold medal events of the Milan Winter Olympics live on CCTV-1, CCTV-5, CCTV-5+ and CCTV-16. It will also use technologies such as 4K/8K ultra-high definition to enhance the viewing experience. Live broadcasts of all events will be carried out from 16:00 Beijing time to 06:00 the next day.
    • The strength of the UK is that they are 100% focused on the track, while Italy must to navigate between the track and the road: the line-up is different for practically every event, etc. Paternoster should focus 100% on the track; she won't win anything big on the road anymore. As it is, she's weak both there and there. The situation is different with Balsamo, as she's also having significant success on the road and likely earns the most money there.
    • Discovery+ in the UK have also got their schedule up now.     I notice that only thing listed as being in UHD is the Opening Ceremony though....     
    • The problem over the last few years was that no-one was able to keep pace with the big Katie Archibald turns. Looks to be sorted now.  
    • The women's top 50 is so crammed with athletes from the same five nations that it is not inconceivable they are unable to fill the full quota from the top 50, in which case a third double spot would open up between USA/BEL/GBR
    • That women's pursuit team looks brutally fast. Batter you over the head into submission brutal, perhaps not seen since the early Trott-Rowsell days The 4 minute barrier could be on borrowed time.   The two British women sprinters Finucane and Caldwell also look pretty ominous, indeed the whole women's sprint team looks in some shape and with some depth to get that result without Finucane   Work to do for the British men's teams, but they won't be unhappy either, not to mention Joe Truman's unexpected Kilo win.
    • I prefer to do mine like this guy (https://app.podiumsport.it/) does his "Projected Medals" as probability based rather than straight medal picking... all things being equal, conversion rates should be about the same and the outliers come out in the wash. Unfortunately most people just like medal picking, and think any other approach is weird  
    • So probably: Men Oceania: Americas: Africa: Asia: One of  Europe: One of Host: World Rankings: Combination of  (probably not)  and whichever countries don’t qualify from Asian Games.  Universality: ? Final Qualification Tournament: One of the above in World Rankings    and one of  (most likely) or  seem safe with two quotas. The other will be favourites if a third team gets allocated two.    Women Oceania: Europe: One of Americas:  /  if US is ineligible due to their host quota, if the host quota gets reallocated then Canada will be in contention in the rankings Africa:   Asia: One of   Host: World Rankings: Combination of  (x1?)  (x1/2)  (x1/2), whichever doesn’t qualify out of  / ,  and  ? Final Qualification Tournament: One of above.  Universality: ?    is safe with two quotas between  it’ll be tough for whoever misses out of those three.   nevermind ,
