Martin Fourcade: "I can not say if this was the best sprints of my career, but it certainly was one of the best. Before the start I knew that Eberhard and Svendsen had zero and Johannes Bø was over in a matter of penalties. This I helped me a lot, because I knew in advance what I should do to win. Why I chose a high bib number? There were two schools of thought. We and the Germans believed that starting in the third group would involve finding a faster track. the Norwegians and Austrians instead they thought the snow would not change with the passage of the athletes. i must say that in the end they were right, i think the speed of the track has not changed between the different starting groups. What do you think of the chase Sunday? That I will not go wrong! ".
Julian Eberhard: "I am happy with my second place, I drove a superb race. But Martin has made it clear to everyone who the boss is. I could not do any better. I trained a lot to shoot during the Christmas break and the goal is to arrive in top form at the World Championships in Hochfilzen home. The hope is to make myself feel better by the day! "
Emil Hegle Svendsen: "Fourcade turned in a crazy race, it was simply an unattainable level. This clearly is not pleasing to everyone else, so I'll have to work hard to try to beat him. My goal is to be able to challenge on equal terms. I think that soon I can do it. Before Christmas I was much closer to him, today the gap was too wide. I'll have to work hard to recover. Strangely I made less effort today than in the relay race, but probably I distributed hurt the effort. I started too slowly and if you lose ground in the first round, one last quick round does not allow you to fully recover the accumulated detachment "

Scheib rientra in Europa dopo 29 giorni tra Argentina e Cile: Un lavoro molto buono. Sarà lei la favorita a Soelden
La detentrice della Coppa del Mondo di gigante, che proprio dall'opening sul Rettenbach ha iniziato a costruire lo scorso anno quel trionfo, ha diviso a metà il lavoro tra focus sulla sua disciplina a Ushuaia e poi velocità sulle nevi cilene pensando al super-g. Rifinitura a Pitztal e poi direttamente a Soelden, il set-up finale lo definiremo in quel momento.
