NEWS '' The men's World Cup & egrave; begun in the name of Martin Fourcade, who won three of the five races held so far.
However the French career has never excelled in Pokljuka where, on the contrary, is Anton Shipulin & egrave; always expressed very well. The Russian, after difficult debut & Öland; stersund, gave important signals in Hochfilzen where Simon Schempp confirmed that it could be a worthy opponent in the race for the trans crystal ball, cos & Igrave; as Tarjei B ø ;. All three have to & ograve; sold, for one reason or un''altra, several points to Catalan and - if they want to challenge him - will quickly give a swerve to his season.
About steering, also the 'Italian men looking for a change of pace. The Azzurri engaged in Slovenia will be only three: Lukas Hofer, Christian De Lorenzi and Dominik Windisch.
STORIAPokljuka can & ograve; It is defined as the joker of the calendar of the World Cup biathlon Since & eacute ;, after having made its appearance in 1992, & nbsp; has never found a resting place in and out continuously by schedule and often changing position in the time history of the '' winter.
In fact, the most & ugrave; of the time it & egrave; competed in December, but there are also stages played in January and especially in March. The repeated movements have sometimes given birth to a very peculiar situation: in 2001, 2007 and 2014, the resort & agrave; Slovenia hosted in the same calendar year two legs belonging to two different competitive seasons. So far in Pokljuka you were sailed 48 races male individual level (10 twenty kilometers, sprinting 18, 12 chases, 8 mass start), including five with iridescent value (one for each format in 2001 to which is added the pursuit in 1998 AFFECT & ograve; world title since all''epoca not included in the Olympic program).
Are 25 athletes with at least one victory. Who has the highest number of appearances on the step pi & ugrave; top of the podium & egrave; Ole Einar Bj ø rndalen, it imposed on 5 occasions, one in pi & ugrave; Raphael Poir & eacute; e Vladimir Dratchev.
Seven men in business & agrave; to have excelled at least once. To gi & agrave; cited Bj ø rndalen (5) adding the Norwegian Emil Hegle Svendsen (3) and Russian Anton Shipulin (3). Quest & rsquo; however, last won three of the last five races and in & rsquo; Slovenian system boasts a number tutt & rsquo; now open five consecutive podiums. & Egrave; credited with two statements the Russian Ivan Tcherezov, while they have a single success the 'Austrian Daniel Mesotitsch, Slovenian Jakov Fak, and Germany's Andreas Birnbacher (1).
So, as you can & ograve; note, Martin Fourcade never won in Pokljuka. The location of the Julian Alps French & egrave; reached the maximum in second place, obtained on two occasions, also he occupied three times the step pi & ugrave; the bottom of the podium.
Looking at the nations, the polygon near Bled & egrave; a sort of Russian colony. For more on the step & ugrave; top of the podium waved 9 different flags, but Russia drives with 14 successes in the recent past and has overtaken Norway, which stood at 12 followed by France (6); Germany (5); Austria (4); Sweden (3), Belarus (2); Finland and Austria (1).
The 'then Italy has never won and generally not & egrave; never taken great satisfaction in Pokljuka. The exception is the medal 'silver in the sprint world championship in 2001, obtained by Ren & egrave; Cattarinussi, the day of what is still & egrave; the 'only male blue podium in Slovenia. & nbsp;
