He immediately thought of the weather to mess up the plans. After a week of warm and sunny weather, today the Tyrolean town was flooded by a heavy snowfall that made it much more difficult to track. Just as well for the show, because in light of what we have seen so far, though today's conditions had remained the same in recent days would have staged a real "shooting competition", where core inflation would play a secondary part. The snow, however, has again conferred upon narrow skis a role to protagonista.Il launch was in fact immediately proved very selective, with Vanessa Hinz and Anais Chevalier to impose their rhythm to the rest of the group. Lisa Vittozzi was able to hold his own, while the other, more dangerous opponents have begun to yield ground in an important way. In particular Iryna Varvynets and Jessica Jislova have all left on half a minute flat (or more) to the summit, while a staggering performance Kaia Nicolaisen underwent off any ambitions of Norway champion in carica.La second fraction has significantly sparigliato cards. A wonderful Federica Sanfilippo one used charging and has taken the luxury of Italy give the provisional leadership in mid-competition. Only Maren Hammerschmidt, was saved in extremis at the standing shooting, she has managed to keep the wake of the policewoman Ridnauntal. Celia Aymonier has indeed shot (lily) with antediluvian times, losing ground broadly, however, seeing himself sucked into Yuliia Dzhima and Eva PuskarÄÃková - for their part kept at a distance dall'azzurra. The sages say that the third quarter is often the decisive one. In fact, here the race took its definitive shape. Franziska Hildebrand has leveraged the strength at the range, pushing the German in charge of operations despite a genuine crisis in the final round. Behind her impressive Anastasya Merkushyna reported in Ukraine, while Justine Braisaz and Veronika Vitkova have done their homework taking share their own teams. Instead, he suffered extremely in the bottom Alexia Runggaldier, seeing himself hung up by the French and the ceca.In conclusion laura dahlmeier has perennially made Beagle, steadily gaining ground on the pursuers on the track, but more than usual mistaken shooting. However, using the most of the refills, he prevented the enemy to take it and you are involata to success. Behind her is waged a great battle for the other two steps of the podium. Alfine Olena Pidhrushna handled better than all of his energy, staying long blanket and then emerge in the final and settle the place of honor. Marie Dorin Habert was still hoisted in third place, while an exhausted Gabriela Koukalová has probably paid in the final efforts of the first two rounds. Seemingly evanescent Dorothea Wierer, but in reality it is simply up against a more talented athletes total of her, having to bow to the superior quality of the opponents. So gold medal for Germany, already safe to close in the lead the medals of this edition of the World Championship, and tenth world title in history in this test. You can not find an MVP, because it was the most classic of team success. Finally it showed the overall strongest lineup. Taking into account the mixed, this is the third gold of Dahlmeier career in a team event, the second one for Hinz and Hildebrand, the first Silver Hammerschmidt.Medaglia for Ukraine, where they shone especially Merkushyna and strategic sagacity Pidhrushna with Varvynets and Dzhiima admirably to play their part.
Continues the curse of France, which paid duty in the central fractions (also the two most at risk). With today's bronze transalpine salt movement on the championship podium for the twelfth time, but again missing the top step (the total of metals tells 0-8-4)! For Italy - fifth - there's definitely a little 'disappointment, especially since Vittozzi made extensive his duty and Sanfilippo has beautifully expressed. However Runggaldier has returned to the ranks after the exploits of the individual (and certainly the heavy snowfall made it much more difficult to defend themselves on skis), while Wierer has simply faced more forti.Domani competitors at 14.45 the men's relay. The women conclude their World Sunday at 11:30, with mass start.
