With the 'arrival of the twenty-first century the' system of Thuringia & egrave; instead became a classic, finding fixed position as the first stop of January (except for 2003 - '' 04, when you race you & ograve; in February to host the World Cup). The peculiarity & agrave; Oberhof & egrave; to have what is widely considered the polygon pi & ugrave; dell''intero complicated circuit, since & eacute; - Besides being often plagued by wind and fog - you arrive after a long stretch of floor where & egrave; impossible to rise again to recover. So far in the & nbsp; DKB-Ski-Arena were sailed 43 races female individual first level (3 fifteen kilometers, 19 sprint, 10 chases, 11 mass start), four of which value champion (one for each format in 2004 ).
