Indicated in the forecasts of the beginning of the season as one of the main opponents of Dorothea Wierer and Lisa Vittozzi in the fight for the crystal ball, Marte Olsbu Roeiseland has shown to Ostersund and Hochfilzen to be one, if not the first, of the biathlete mostly in skiing conditions close. Proof of this is the last leg of the women's relay in Austria, where it dragged Norway to victory. Two days before the first races of Le Grand Bornand, where the biathletes will be busy Thursday in the Sprint, Saturday in the Pursuit and Sunday in the Mass Start, the Norwegian champion has confirmed a rumor that was chasing each other in the summer. "I feel a little tired after Hochfilzen," Marte told the Norwegian NTB agency, "I think it is better to go home to train. My big goal of the season will be the Anterselva World Championships". The choice of the Norwegian will lead her not only to burn the two waste that the athletes have available at the end of the season but also to score an additional "zero" which could be an important factor in the fight for the World Cup and for podium positions in the overall standings where he finished in fourth place last season.
