But then again, without Paris, other speedsters could gain more points in downhills and super gs, and become a bigger players for the big globe. EDIT: Well, mostly thinking about Kilde as well. Kriechmayr or Mayer, can they become a threat?

My last transfers were such failures. Never mind, keeping my head high, lets have more failures. [hide] Samuelsson out Johannes Boe in (and captain - Ooebers stays that with girls) Tarjei Boe out Doll in And just to keep track of all my transfers: Fialkova > Makarainen Johannes Boe > Tarjei Boe Eckhoff > Tandrevold Samuelsson > Johannes Boe Tarjei Boe > Doll And the whole current team: Johannes Boe Hanna Oeberg Nation Women Markéta Davidová Kaisa Mäkäräinen Lisa Theresa Hauser Ingrid Tandrevold Nation Men Martin Fourcade Benedikt Doll Evgeniy Garanichev Dominik Windisch [/hide]

Third place race! *The* actual race within this race!

Sorry about that.

Four pursuits between two sports, and all were disappointing.

Apparently, 20-3 for blue course. Even if it's boring, they should make it atleast more fair with two races from 1/8 finals.

Easy for both Johaug and Bolshunov, but no wonder with their advantage. Klaebo moved to second though, good for him too. Obersdorf next weekend with skiathlon and classic sprint.

That's only for the "special" races like Tour de Ski, right? Today for instance, there's no "win" for the fastest.

I wanna blizzard for the remaining races.

Miss something! Like 3 or 4 in next two shooting.

Zubčić is in nice form though. And PGS is as dull as always.

Ridiculous tempo from Johaug...even Weng, though she's still 6+ seconds behind after a kilometer.

I'm an idiot in the transfer market.

Gonna lose a few on the track again, though. EDIT: Managed to hold them all off. Well done. No Boe, Fourcade wins. So predictable. Other Boe was terrible.

How did they do the men last year? Shooting today at 5 - 7.5 - 10 - 12.5?

Such a shame for Kryuko though.

That's it, Kaisa wins!

Wow, very windy.

Stay strong, Kryuko and Kaisa!

Exhilarating 3 minutes of AC. Shame biathlon is 45 minutes away.

Zubčić showing slalom skiiers how it's done.

Might get better in some future races, but today for instance, second race is useless after first three starters. Men's race was over when Pinturault started 9th I believe. So far, very much prefer previous order. Combination will never be fair. And as I said, always was looking forward by just how much speed masters will lose in slalom races.

And silly, it was. Just 47 starters, 31 finishers. And apparently, we're going with 1st in this race -> 1st starter in slalom, 2nd -> 2nd and so on and on...? So, pretty much no point watching a lot of second race. No more looking forward to various straddling while waiting for the last racers...

Combination is interesting discipline in the way where we watch just how silly will it get. Still miles better than parallel nonsenses.

Globe for three races just isn't anything to look for. But, still 200 more points to be given.
