Not wanting to face a Gate 3 humiliation.

Not bad at all for

could be going home with a top 15

She owes her a pint of Guinness for sure.

Holdener also out at Three!

Going to take a miracle run to beat MS now.

Nick Fellows is the worst prophet in sports - is well known for pretty much always getting it wrong. However, today....

Shiffrin massive lead.

Brignone

So like Sochi, then?

Managed to get himself DSQed today.

Chipkoech sets a new WR for the 5km Road Race.https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/athletics/56061277It’s on YT.https://youtu.be/eX2rF7ldugE

Her ski speed is bad though, always loses places. Hauser charging, up to silver.

Horrible for Vitozzi, 1/5. Wierer on a charge 15/15 & up to fifth.

Said this before, but as the new guy in the Norwegian team, he had no choice but to be at his strongest in Nov/Dec, & couldn’t afford to save anything for February.

Just saw that, amazing stuff.

Bookies must love you.

Great stuff from Jacquelin.

Ponsiluoma takes the pressure off himself by missing two.

Hmm, wonder if she’s got any family.

it’s the biathlon variant of the Commentator’s Curse, the most powerful force in the known universe. Athletes will shoot 5/5 in private, but as soon as they hear their name on the Stadium PA, they fall apart like zombies hit with a double-barrelled shotgun.

Another snowy day in Zakopane. As usual the snowblowers will be turned up to 11 for the Poles, down to 1 for the Germans. Ryoyu Kobayashi gets the first win of the season, just at the right time.

Just coming up to the big climb in Provence. Ineos have been leading up the climb, wasn’t clear whether Bernal or Sosa was going to be their main man. Sosa had attacked first, is getting away as we move up to the snowline. Bernal is holding back, presumably will be Man 2. Looks blooming cold. Alaphillipe now countering, but Bernal has gone with him. Sosa gets the win & leads the overall Bernal @ 19 secs Alaphilippe @ 21 secs

Chevalier-Bouchet could have beaten her, but 0 1.... Wow, Hanna Sola!
