Tiril Eckhoff's fifth consecutive victory in a Sprint (1-0) comes at the end of a very tight race that sees seven biathletes at the finish line in 20 seconds and 16 in 45, a great encouragement for a spectacular Sunday Pursuit.
The Norwegian, best time on skis practically equal to Marte Roeiseland (2-0), confirms the solidity of the season shooting and on the finish line she presents herself with an advantage of 9.3 seconds over the Ukrainian Yuliia Dzhima (0-0). Lisa Vittozzi (0-0) climbs on the third step of the podium and for the first time this season, with the sixteenth time on skis 46.6 seconds behind the Norwegian duo, she will start tomorrow at 15.0 seconds from Eckhoff.
Dorothea Wierer (0-1), author of one of the best times on skis excluding the Norwegians to whom she pays thirty seconds, is fifth at 16.3 and in the last lap she misses by only two tenths the overtaking of the Belarusian Alimbekava (0- 0), fourth.
