Kirkpatrick 144 Posted March 22, 2019 #242 Share Posted March 22, 2019 (edited) All the contenders qualified for QFs of today's sprint. Good time for Nepryaeva, guess not ill anymore. Only overall seems interesting though, sprints are done, I don't think even theoretically Falla has any chance anymore. Nilsson finished second in qualifying, so even if she falls for example in QF, should have enough points even if Falla wins eventually. I think so at least, slightly confusing how final positions are in sprint. Edited March 22, 2019 by Kirkpatrick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirkpatrick 144 Posted March 22, 2019 #243 Share Posted March 22, 2019 Patrick from Eurosport is in belief that winners get 100 points for win here, I'm afraid not, just 50. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2018–19_FIS_Cross-Country_World_Cup#Points_distribution Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirkpatrick 144 Posted March 22, 2019 #244 Share Posted March 22, 2019 That's pretty much it for women's overall, well over 100 points advantage for Østberg with two races to go. I can't see any scenario where she fails. Hope lads will keep it interesting until Sunday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirkpatrick 144 Posted March 22, 2019 #245 Share Posted March 22, 2019 Lads on Eurosport without pardon mixed Bolshunov with Ustiugov. Curse of the -ov ending names for Anglos! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kirkpatrick 144 Posted March 22, 2019 #247 Share Posted March 22, 2019 Just 24 points between Klaebo and Bolshunov before last two (distance) races? While Bolshunov is a favourite in them, Klaebo showed in Tour de Ski that he can compete and win in them as well. It will be close until the end.

Oh right, stage races. They should keep that with the Tour de Ski.
