HISTORY Unlike many other disciplines, biathlon is not new to South Korea. These snows in fact were the scene of top-level competitions in March 2008 and in February 2009, when it hosted the World Cup.
So Daegwallyeong-myeon has already hosted six individual races valid for sex for the World Cup.
In the men the winners of five of these six races are still in business. Ole Einar Bjoerndalen was imposed in the sprint, pursuit and twenty kilometers of the World Cup. Dominik Landertinger has instead prevailed in the mass start standings, while Emil Hegle Svendsen won the sprint of February 2008. Among the names of those who took the podium reads also that of Jakov Fak, then still the Croatian and blatantly bronze medal in 'individual.
Different speech among women, where all those who won in the county of PyeongChang have retired long ago. However, two competing silver medals of the World Cup 2009. Teja Gregorin (15 km) and Anastasiya Kuzmina (mass start). Among other things for the Russian naturalized Slovak was the first podium of his career.
FIGHT FOR THE WORLD CUP - MEN In all likelihood Korea will be the place where Martin Fourcade will get the mathematical certainty to get his hands on his sixth Crystal ball. Net discard the Frenchman has 360 points ahead of Anton Shipulin and 367 of Simon Schempp, when 420 remain available.
Translated, the trans will win the general classification as early as Friday if arrivals before the Russian and give in to the maximum six points in Germany. Otherwise you will have to wait Saturday.
is however not written that arrivals math success safety in the sprint and pursuit specialty rankings, where Catalan has 100 or 101 more sull'inseguitore close points margin. To even get these trophies with two early stages will have to earn 20 lengths of Julian Eberhard in the trial of two polygons and 21 of Shipulin in one out of four.
 FIGHT FOR WORLD CUPS - WOMEN The Hochfilzen World launched with arrogance laura dahlmeier leading the overall standings. Net of the Bavarian waste commands with 78 points ahead of Gabriela Koukalová. More detached Kaisa Mäkäräinen (-170) and Marie Dorin Habert (-215). In other words, unless both of ailments of the first two, the race to the Crystal ball appears restricted to the German and the Czech.
Very different situation from the perspective of specialty sundaes.
In that the sprint is close fight between Koukalová (286) and Mäkäräinen (280), with Dahlmeier (248) and Dorin Habert (241) forced to chase.
Pursuit we have instead a real ex aequo mass, with Mäkäräinen red bib in 268 share, closely followed by 265 Koukalová and Dorin Habert. Slightly detached, but still fully in the running, Dahlmeier (253).
