Oeberg should just hold on...

Egan with some ski pace!

If Kuzmina finishes 2nd she won't beat Wierer's 894 mark which would be her worst possible. She'll have 893.

Yeah, Wierer's three misses mean little if Kuzmina is 19th

ES showing some horse jumping so I'm watching on Polsat Sport... First shoot, Wierer 5/5, Kuzmina 3/5, Vittozzi 2/5!

Hmm... the intermediate IBU results actually count the cancelled Canmore sprint as a valid race so technically only one worst score is counted off, In which case Wierer has 894 pts rather than 875? https://ibu.blob.core.windows.net/docs/1819/BT/SWRL/CP09/SWPU/BT_C78B_1.0.pdf

Wierer 875, Vittozzi 852, Kuzmina 839. Wierer needs 16th in mass start to finish ahead of Kuzmina if she wins. Wierer needs 6th in mass start if Vittozzi wins.

Obviously Winterton is unaware she never hit 20/20 before

Women's pursuit has started. Tomasz Sikora thinks P.Fialkova will win this (but that's his standard prediction this season ).

Don't forget about the Planica 7! Yeah, all these events outside Four Hills are so useless so beyond laughable at this stage. The only point of it being qualifying suddenly matters now that Top 10 used to skip that so they ruled out Top 10 auto quals and people still don't give a shit. Ruke Triple, Four Hills, Willingen 5, Raw AIr, Planica 7. Did I miss something?

Slovakia finishes 17th and gets to field 4 athletes next season, Poland 18th and stays with three. Finland skipping the North American races cost them that fourth spot for next season so I have no idea how they justify that?

men have a slight chance to hold onto 17th place in the Nations Cup which would get them 4 spots on the WC next season (mostly because Slovakia & Finland skipped some races this season). They have a 6 pts lead over However at the last 10km sprint in Antholz where both teams were present Slovakia scored 95 pts more than us so it looks unlikely. Moreover I mentioned this possibility in the World Champs thread but the Oslo sprint could be the last race for Fredrik Lindstroem. He has indeed decided to hang it up.

It's official, Vittozzi out of the pursuit.

Chloe Chevalier also wants a podium...

Aymonier holds off Herrmann!

Polish ES talking about Wierer's make-up skills again Sikora rolls back time and says Albina Akhatova was the leader in that department back in his day

Aymonier faster than both Olsbu & Eckhoff on the last lap. Hoegberg obviously losing time... even behind Persson.

That was an awkward shot of Wierer/Vittozzi Tomasz Sikora says with 2:30 back Vittozzi probably won't even make the pursuit.

Aymonier 10/10. First time ever?

Vittozzi 5/10. Overall globe RIP?

Kuzmina 42 secs. ahead of Eckhoff in the finish with Fialkova in between them.

Kuzmina 30 secs. faster on skis than Eckhoff? She's got a little turbo in her skis on what?

Meltdown for Vittozzi... 2/5 That kills her pursuit too? Wierer 9/10. She'll take that!

Eckhoff 9/10 but much faster than Yurlova. Paulina Fialkova 10/10! @hckosice will be happy about that

Women's Oslo sprint about to start. Wierer #16, Vittozzi #28.
