The French dominated the scene realizing the best time skiing and finding zero at the shooting range. Interestingly, this is shooting his second consecutive perfect performance after missing at least one target in the first fourteen Championship test.
Catalan twenty-seven did not grant even a chance to attack, and has therefore won the sixth dell''inverno victory, the number 45 of his career. Just this fact & egrave; Since particularly significant & eacute; It allows the transalpine definitively overcome the legendary compatriot Raphael Poir & eacute; and settle in solitude and second in the all-times ranking of plurivittoriosi where, before him, remains only Ole Einar Bj ø rndalen with 95 statements.
Piazza d' 'honor for Anton Shipulin that despite the perfection on the pitch, had to bow to 15 "7 to Fourcade. Thanks to the rapidity & agrave; firing the Russian & egrave; still managed to precede than three seconds Simon Schempp, which stood in third place and now up to 20 podiums in his career. So the top three are the three most & ugrave men listed on the eve, all clean at the shooting range, where they dug a large gulf between s & egrave; and the rest of the starters field.
In fact, the fourth-ranked paid three-quarters of a minute to the winner, and nearly half the Teutonic. However Julian Eberhard can memorize options be satisfied for having achieved the best result of his career and especially confirming what is put on display in January, or to be entered in the '' & eacute; lite of the most absolute ugrave & cross-country skiers; Strong circuit. Today we witness the fact that he was the 'only one able to stand up to Fourcade.
The Salzburg has to memorize options missed two targets and you & egrave; I had to sit at the foot of the podium, ahead of compatriots Dominik Landertinger, very perky back on skis after a dull period, and the "hammer" Simon Eder. Quest''ultimo its part has overtaken its French namesake Simon Fourcade, seventh.
Eighth a great Dominik Windisch, collecting the second best result of his career. The twenty-six dell''Esercito finished in the top ten in spite of a penalty & agrave; on the ground thanks to the zero up and a final round path to the big beat.
Homemade Italian & egrave; He arrived also the eighteenth place Lukas Hofer, in turn forced to go once the 'ominous ring and whose race has had a somewhat unique appearance. Party like lightning, so much to keep the pace of Fourcade, subsequently he paid brutally duty from the second round. One suspects that right in the second round the 'Alto Adige has been the victim of a fall, costatagli thirty seconds and the possibility & agrave; to fight with Evgeny Garanichev for tenth place.
Inconvenience or less strategic leadership & egrave; always the same, tonight openly criticized by commentators of technical ZDF and Eurosport France. In addition to German dell''emittente microphones Martin Fourcade said as the track looks easy, but is actually & agrave; very demanding and it is necessary to start monitored to avoid bursting in the continuation of the competition.
This is the 'analysis of one of the most & ugrave; great biathletes of all time, as well as & eacute; Today's winner, and by whom & egrave; paying big bucks to look at the races on television authentic superpowers of the discipline such as Germany and France. Those who writes refrains dall''esprimere judgments about because & eacute ;, you know, "does not understand and does not know anything about biathlon" (cit.).
the first points of the season also came to Thomas Bormolini, thirty-fifth. The Valtellina could even have qualified for the mass start tearing if he had not missed the very 'latest target. So the 'unique blue engaged in mass start will be & agrave; Windisch. The Italian fourth on track today, Christian De Lorenzi, you & egrave; ranked fifty-seventh.
Fourcade extends again in the overall standings of the World Cup reaching 771 points. Shipulin you & egrave; hoisted in second place, but & egrave; at an altitude of 568. Third the 'absent Tarjei B ø (550) about to be overtaken by Schempp (531).
The ranking of specialty & agrave; instead sees Fourcade red bib with 270 ahead of Schempp (228), Shipulin (197) and Tarjei B ø (194).
Always tomorrow at 19:15 will go & agrave; staged the women's sprint. The men will be back on track Saturday at 18.00.
