Word to the three medalists men dell''inseguimento of Hochfilzen World Cup.

Martin Fourcade: "I think the chase is my favorite format, there is not another where it is so satisfying to cut the finish line first. I have won many gold medals at the World Championships, but victory always has the same taste and not tired ever! Overall I am very satisfied because I immediately took my head and I could do my own race without problems. Unfortunately, I was wrong the last blow, and it has a bit 'annoyed me. I wanted already rejoice at the shooting range for show, but with the error I had to fly very in the penalty loop. the last lap was quiet and I had time to think. I knew that Ole was behind me and I told myself I did not even mind the ideal way to beat the his record, because it never fails to get on the podium. Continue to take medals even at age 43, doing so is impossible to overcome it! Overall I really enjoyed myself on the track, it's great to race in the midst of so many spectators. it seemed retrying the same happiness when I was 9 and my parents bought my first pair of skis. Now the most important race for me becomes the relay, because the French team is one of the best, if not the best. " Johannes Bø: "I continued to make mistakes and to be wrong, so I was sinking in the rankings. But I have seen others go wrong at the last polygon and I decided to risk it. It went well and then I managed to do a good last lap. Honestly I was not at all convinced that I could reach Ole, because after seeing him pull Bailey I thought I would never be able to hook it. However there are still managed on the last climb, then I looked back and did not see anyone. Only then I realized that I got a medal. " Ole Einar Bjoerndalen: "I think I did a great race, so I'm happy. Well, even the silver Darya is splendid. He was very good and gave me a big boost ahead of my race. For her it's a second place that counts as a win and is the first podium of the season. I never thought it would go to medal, but it was just great. The fact of having a family gave me great peace of mind, it was great to watch the arrival of Darya Ksenia holding in her arms. This bronze means a lot and I feel that my form is growing. "
