The interesting & egrave; Eve Puskarcikova, Gabriela Soukalová, Jitka Landova and Veronika Vitkova - ie the four factional today - all''epoca's Last affirmation Czech (with Katerina Holubcová, Jirina Pelcová, Irena Cesnekova Hakova and Eve) were respectively 7, 8, 7 and 9 years!
In spite of the long fast interrupted, today's victory & egrave; all fuorch & eacute; a surprise. The movement of the central European nation, unlike so many others, not & egrave; was weakened by withdrawals and cry at the same time the young age & agrave; let assume average growth.
MVP of the day undoubtedly Landova that after the good performances of Puskarcikova and Soukalova, you & egrave; protagonita yield a performance above expectations with minimal steps to empty the polygon. Vitkova, despite some awkwardness of shooting too, then got the better of direct competition giving the Czech Republic a deserved success.
Curiously the second position & egrave; was occupied by the same nation that had concluded the square of 'honor also the' last relay race won by Czech, namely France. After a not exciting launch of Marine Bolliet, Marie Dorin Habert (all''esordio after pregnancy) has proven to be in great shape by bringing the transalpine in command. Justine is Braisaz & egrave; defense superbly, while closing Anais Bescond & egrave; output loss from head to head with Vitkova hired.
The podium & egrave; completed by Belarus where they shone in the first and last part Nadezhda Skardino and especially Darya Domracheva, who dragged in the top-three Nastassia Dubarezava and Nadzeya Pisareva, which have made to their capabilities & agrave ;.
The 'Italian (Dorothea Wierer, Lisa Vittozzi, Nicole Gontier, Karin Oberhofer) finished fifth, just behind a Norway where they arrived signs of life by Synn & oslash; ve Solemdal and a few seconds from third place.
Overall the best of the blue & egrave; Oberhofer was just that he battled with Domracheva and Tiril Eckhoff. For the rest not Wierer & egrave; managed to make a difference to the launch, Vittozzi struggled exceedingly skiing and Gontier had to use as many as 6 refills. However we can & ograve; be optimistic if a decent performance however, allowed to approach the podium.
Disappointed of day Ukraine, Russia and Germany. The Ukrainian menavano dances in three-quarters of the competition, but to close Irina Varvynets & egrave; literally sunk (especially in the last meters) relegating the quartet in sixth place. The Russian (seventh) have accused two rounds of penalty payment agrave; Darya Virolaynen, while the German (tithes) have paid a round of penalty payment agrave; with Luise Kummer and the 'inadequacy to the context of the World Cup of Karolin Horchler.
