Beijing 2022: who will be the new queen of the women's Sprint? Wierer tries with the 22

Everything is ready for the women's 7.5 km which will start at 10:00 Italian time. Four Italians at the start of a fundamental race also in view of Sunday's Pursuit, with Samuela Comola on her Olympic debut.

The 23-year-old from Valle d'Aosta takes the place of Michela Carrara, who had instead participated in the Individual. For her, as well as for Sanfilippo and Vittozzi, the goal will be to qualify for the test on Sunday. Viewfinder aimed at the Pursuit also for Wierer, who today will have to conquer a good starting position. For the medals Dorothea starts as an outsider and to get on the podium she will probably need a "zero" shot. The Italian took the podium in the last Sprint of the season behind Elvira Oeberg and Roeiseland, but today many athletes start with podium ambitions. Here the IBU Live Timing! Here is the starting list! Four years ago the title went to Laura Dahlmeier, who won over Roeiseland and Vitkova. The Norwegian will therefore try to climb a position compared to Pyeongchang and to win the third medal in Beijing 2022 after gold in the mixed relay and bronze in the 15 km. However, it promises to be a very tight race, as have been the Sprints so far disputed this season, which have seen five different winners in six races. For the medals there will also be the Oeberg sisters, who have chosen the second starting group, the Belarusian and the fearsome French. Attention also to Denise Herrmann, who after the success of the Individual will try to keep the title in Germany.
