Seven races at the end of which three sprints, the first of which will be staged on Thursday (via at 5.35 pm) at the opening of the stage of Nove Mesto.
The Biathlon World Cup restarts from the Czech Republic, despite the coronavirus alarm and the consequent decision to compete without an audience. And Dorothea Wierer, competing with Lisa Vittozzi, Federica Sanfilippo and Michela Carrara, goes in defense of the yellow bib of leader of the general, in a stage that will not see the multi-world champion of the world Mars Olsbu Roeiseland at the starting line.
One less rival in the race to the crystal ball, but from Eckhoff to Oeberg to Herrmann, the race is still long for the Italian leader: “We are faced with particular conditions, with soft snow and high temperatures (today up to 5 °, editor's note) - explains Wierer - We hope that the organizers will use rooms on the track, but in any case it will be strange to compete without the public and probably boring. In the end, however, it is a stage of the World Cup and we will see what experience it will be, on the other hand we will face it all in the same conditions.
The ranking sees me ahead, but with the game of discards the cards can be shuffled ".
