The day starts with & ograve; with the & rsquo; men's individual where flat rates are many. & Egrave; Olympic year and the Norwegians rush have planned since the beginning of the season not to participate in & rsquo; appointment Slovak. Therefore choose Ole Einar Bj ø rndalen and Stian Eckhoff, first and third respectively in the overall as well as Halvard Hanevold, Frode Andresen and Lars Berger. For the same reason & ndash; or for ailments & ndash; There are absences of weight in other countries. Not even the game Sergei Tchepikov, Vincent Defrasne, Ilmars Bricis, Sergei Rozhkov and Vladimir Dratchev.
Make the best of this context impoverished Germany which unlike sided full. The competition is resolved in fact a real triumph led by German Sven Fischer.
Absences or less today the thirty-four of Thuringia would be hard to beat for anyone Since & eacute; He realizes the second time skiing and especially tight covers all 20 targets thus obtaining & Igrave; a sharp success, the first of the season and the thirty-first of his career.
Behind the veteran native of the GDR are placed two young biathletes, both the first appearance on the podium in their careers. The square d & rsquo; honor, albeit at more than 1 & rsquo; 15 & rdquo; the winner goes to the twenty-three Maxim Tchoudov that, thanks to a perfect test at the shooting, before the twenty-two Michael R & ouml; sch, who makes a mistake but has no problem to overcome a Michael Greis too foul feet.
So the day of glory for the team Teutonic Since & eacute; in addition to the first, the third and the fourth position also they arrive the sixth Andreas Birnbacher and the ninth Alexander Wolf. Quest & rsquo; & ograve can last; biting your hands for two penalty payment agrave; & Outdoors; last polygon, costatigli the podium. Same goes for un''altra young guns of & rsquo; era, the Czech Michal Å lesingr seventh at the finish line and his best result ever, but definitely upset about the & ldquo; 2 & rdquo; to close after the triple zero.
Also notable is the performance of Bj & ouml; rn Ferry & ndash; fifth with the shoot-out & ndash; But the palm of surprise of the day goes to the Swiss Simon Hallenbarter hitting all targets except the first and is presented for the first time in the top ten (will have & agrave; wait until 2008 for ritornavi).
Chews bitter instead Raphael Poir & eacute; and who does not go beyond the twelfth. French regains competitiveness & agrave; Skiing close lost in Austria, but three errors prevent him to breach the top ten and deny the & rsquo; & agrave opportunities; to take the yellow bib.
In fact, the contumacious Bj ø rndalen remains overall leader with 173 points against the 163 of the 124 trans and Wolf, who occupies the virtual podium of the absolute rankings without having concluded in the top-three even a race.
Returning to the race today, at home Italy Ren & eacute; Laurent Vuillermoz confirms the good done in the 20 km of Hochfilzen.

Also in the women register several absences of weight. In addition to that planned for all Norwegian (Linda Tj ø rhom and Liv Grete Poir & eacute; and in the first place), also lack Sandrine Bailly and Martina Glagow, sick.
As said earlier the & rsquo; individual Brezno-Osrblie allows Svetlana Ishmouratova to shake off once and for all l & rsquo; label of eternal placed. Until now, the thirty-three Russian & egrave; climb on the podium 21 times in his career, without & ograve; never take the step pi & ugrave; high! The veteran of Chelyabinsk you & egrave; in fact it classified 13 times second and third 8 times (including one silver and one bronze world championship).
Finally, on Dec. 15, 2005 what looked like a real curse is broken with authorities & agrave ;. Ishmouratova part among the first and, with a good pace, it also manages to be extremely accurate at the shooting range, by committing the & rsquo; only mistake in their closure.
Meanwhile all the enemy pi & ugrave; Dangerous vanish. Kati Wilhelm is called immediately out of contention with three penalty payment agrave; shooting inaugural. & Nbsp; Anna Carin Olofsson flies on skis, but & egrave; too foul in the foot (4). Same for Uschi Disl, while Olga Zaitseva & egrave; protagonist of a & ldquo; 3 & rdquo; the second polygon to the ground.
The table for the first victory & egrave; wanting. Riuscir & agrave; Svetlana consuming the banquet, or for the & rsquo; umpteenth time arriver & agrave; someone to take them off the place right on pi & ugrave; beautiful? The spectrum of & rsquo; yet another joke actually manifests itself, for the most & ugrave; in the form of a & rsquo; other eternal placed. The threat pi & ugrave; large & egrave; represented by Florence Baverel-Robert, up to that moment on the podium eight times in his career with five seconds and 3 third places.
To & ograve; Today & egrave; Day Ishmouratova. The thirty-one French & nbsp; missing a target & Outdoors; last session and the Russian pu & ograve; & Nbsp; celebrate a successful liberating. The transalpine still can & ograve; Because it is satisfied & eacute; He ends third, returning to the podium after a & rsquo; absence of more than three years, characterized by repeated physical problems.
Between the two is part of a & rsquo; another Russian, Albina Akhatova, the first of acute & rsquo; winter. The twenty nine year old Siberian wrong the second polygon, but thanks to two successive zero can recover up to the square d & rsquo; honor by the company countryman on a podium from which is pushed down & ugrave; Pavlina Filipova, author of a race parallel to the Akhatova albeit with a slightly lower pace.
After the initial disaster Wilhelm shooting at large with three more sessions and clean finishing fifth just ahead of teammate Simone Hauswald. Seventh the Belarussian Olga Nazarova that equals the best result of his career and precedes Anna Carin Zidek unplayable on skis tight, but as mentioned too inaccurate. Nona Olga Pyleva, which still lacks something to regain the pace of the best days, while Olga Zaitseva fallose and Uschi Disl rank thirteenth and fourteenth respectively.
Bad day at home Italy, presented itself with only two athletes, none of which enters into the points. Michela Ponza square fortieth and Saskia Santer fifty-seventh.
In the overall standings of the World Cup Zaitseva remains yellow bib with 171 points against the 165 of displ, Ishmouratova of the 162, 159 and 147 of Wilhelm Olofsson.
