Polygon very selective in the 15 kilometers of Östersund: in a storm of errors the talent of Justine Braisaz returns to shine; place of honor for the only ‘zero’ signed by Yuliia Dzhima; another fabulous day for France with Julia Simon on her first career podium.
Thursday 5 December 2019 2 minutes reading time
Lottery race in Östersund: in the 15 km women's race on Swedish soil, the wind played a leading role, shooting the cards in shooting sessions. After almost two years, Justine Braisaz returned to victory in the World Cup, second place for the best day shooter Yuliia Dzhima and third for another French, Julia Simon, at the first career podium.
The Italians have made some mistakes too: after two first complex polygons Dorothea Wierer raised her head completing a remarkable virtual comeback up to the seventh place, while Lisa Vittozzi - ninth - paid about twenty seconds by her teammate, slowed by a pair of penalties in the first standing session.
