The program includes the Men's Sprint at 13:30. To open the race will be one of the possible protagonists, the French Desthieux, who will precede Jakov Fak (2), Emilien Jacquelin (6), Alexander Loginov (8), Martin Ponsiluoma (10) and Johannes Boe (11).
The two blue "captains" will leave one after the other: Dominik Windisch (16) and Lukas Hofer (17). Shortly after it will be the turn of Fillon Maillet (22) and Tarjei Boe (23). Sturla Holm Laegreid (29), winner of the opening Individual, and Sebastian Samuelsson (36) instead drew higher bibs.
These are the numbers of the other Azzurri: Didier Bionaz (44), Thomas Bormolini (80) and Patrick Braunhofer (107).

The Women's Sprint will start at 16:30. Dorothea Wierer chose the first group and drew bib 11. To open the race will be the Polish Dunja Zdouc who will precede one of the favorites for the victory: Denise Herrmann. Lisa Vittozzi will start fourth and will precede Johanna Skottheim (6) and Mona Brorsson (8).
The most fearsome Norwegians Roeiseland and Tandrevold will start one after the other with 24 and 25 respectively, while Eckhoff (88) tries to shuffle the cards and has chosen the fourth group. At the end of the first group will start instead Hanna Oeberg (29), who will precede the Belarusian Alimbekava (31) and Hauser (34), both surprising in the inaugural stage.
These are the bibs of the other three blue in the race: Federica Sanfilippo (45), Irene Lardschneider (63) and Nicole Gontier (85).

Due giorni dopo, a Santiago, Matteo si spense.
