Johannes Thingnes B wins the sprint for dispersion of Le Grand Bornand

In 2011, when Tarjei Bø won the overall World Cup, Norway c'' was who said, "Look at that one strong family is the younger brother Johannes." Quest'' last today has literally blown the bench in Le Grand Bornand sprint, won by dispersion.

Johannes Bø Thingnes has in fact become the protagonist of a superlative performance as it has the fastest time in the bottom without missing any target at the shooting range. The result was a resounding success very clear that if you think of all'' age'' s athlete in question, class of 1993 and therefore still eligible for the junior category. In fact this is the second consecutive upset victory signed by a Norwegian in a sprint after the success of'' Lars Berger in Hochfilzen last week. The veteran has repeated today at the range as done in Austria a week ago (2 penalties), but has not gone beyond the twelfth position. Today the square'' s honor went to Ondrej Moravec. The Czech, the first true high-pitched'' s winter, has not missed targets but has paid the beauty of 32 "9 ​​to the young winner. Fourcade Martin, author of an error, for its part led to his series of 13 consecutive podiums in the World Cup and can put your heart at peace because even with a perfect test shooting could not overcome Johannes Bø. The twenty-five Catalan was right by a narrow margin of Russian Dmitry Malyshko, German Simon Schempp of'' Austrian Mesotitsch and Daniel'' s Italian Lukas Hofer. The'' blue finished seventh on the ground and making a mistake giocandosi still a place on the podium, finally faded for a few seconds. The twenty-four-Alto Adige is also home to the only Italian among the best 40. Markus Windisch (1 penalty) concluded forty, just outside the points. The younger brother Dominik has paid 3 missed targets on the ground and finished forty-fifth. Christian De Lorenzi (2) closed at least fifty-seventh and will be on track in pursuit of'' tomorrow, starting at 13:25. Nothing to do for Christian Martinelli (3) seventy-fifth. The list of disappointments of the day is captained by Simon Fourcade (3) even sixty-seventh and unqualified for the'' pursuit. Certainly not exciting also evidence of German Arnd Peiffer (2) and Andreas Birnbacher (3), respectively fortieth and forty. Martin Fourcade extends further in the overall standings of the World Cup and after only five races has nearly doubled (!) Directed his pursuer. The Frenchman now has 282 points and second place went to Simon Eder reported with 149 while'' absent Svendsen remains third in 143. Le Grand Bornand - SPRINT MASCHILE1.
