After the double Sprint-Pursuit of Oberhof and having climbed to five victories and seven podiums this season, Marte Roeiseland is also the favorite in the Sprint of Ruhpolding, a place that has never given her any joy up to now. The leader of the general will try to dispel the taboo and get on the podium for the first time in the Bavarian town.
The one who has already won in Ruhpolding is Tiril Eckhoff, returning to the race after missing a stage and a half between Le Grand Bornand and Oberhof. On these snows also Dorothea Wierer boasts two victories, who won in 2016 and 2018 in two Individuals. The blue has chosen to start in the second group (bib 44) and will try to confirm the top 10 of a week ago. For Italy there will also be Federica Sanfilippo (7), Lisa Vittozzi (57), Samuela Comola (67) and the returning Michela Carrara (111).
Here the IBU live timing!
Here is the starting list!
Scrolling through the starting list you can see the absences of the Norwegians Lien and Tandrevold and of the German Preuss, who in Ruhpolding boasts a victory, obtained in the Mass Start of 2019. There will be Hanna Sola instead, returning after missing the pursuit on Sunday. The Belarusian, second in the Oberhof Sprint, is second in the specialty ranking just 7 points from Roeiseland and will try to take the red bib. Certainly he starts with podium ambitions, as well as Elvira and Hanna Oeberg, with the latter already able to conquer three career podiums in Ruhpolding but without victories.
