HISTORY MONDIALIIl March 6, 2016 we assign the global male sixteenth title of & rsquo; tracking, format devised in half & agrave; years' 90s and entered the world championship program since 1997.
World out in the context of the test, & egrave; always played using as a starting point l & rsquo; d & rsquo order; arrival of the sprint. In the World Cup & egrave; however occasionally it happened to attend a pursuit with the start list determined by halved detachments of twenty kilometers.
From 1997 to 2015 there are 9 different world champions, belonging to 4 different countries.
Among them the most & ugrave; winning absolute & egrave; Ole Einar Bj ø rndalen, l & rsquo; only one to have won the 'World Championship gold 4 times (2005, 2007, 2008, 2009), for pi & ugrave; consecutive.
On the subject of nations command Norway and Germany with 5 statements. Russia's winning 3 times, while 2 are the successes of France.
The interesting fact & egrave; It represented by the fact that these countries, coinciding with the historical superpowers of the discipline, have established a real tetrarchia, since & eacute; dominate the scene also considering toto medals.
The four movements gi & agrave; mentioned have in fact obtained 43 of the 45 medals so far offered as prizes: 13 Norway (5-3-5), 12 Russia (3-7-2), 10 Germany (5-1-4) and 8 France (2-3-2). The only "raids" are those of Finland (0-0-1) and Sweden (0-1-0).
By understanding the gi & agrave; quoted Bj ø rndalen, there are four biathletes in activities & agrave; to claim a world title nell''inseguimento. Norwegian are added Martin Fourcade (2011, 2012), Emil Hegle Svendsen (2013) and Erik Lesser (2015).
Three members of this quartet on the bulletin board also medals of less valuable metals. Bj ø rndalen got 2 bronze medals (2004, 2008); Fourcade 2 silvers (2011, 2013) and one silver Svendsen (2012).
In addition to the four world champions, in activities & agrave; we find other three men on the podium of a World Cup pursuit. This is Anton Shipulin (silver in 2015, bronze in 2013 and 2012), Tarjei B ø (Bronze in 2011 and in 2015) and Alexander Os (bronze in 2009). Quest & rsquo; last to memorize options not sar & agrave; the game in Oslo because not included among the Norwegian squad.
In spite of the harvest of medals in the sprint came between 1996 and 2001, the 'Italy does not & egrave; He never has been able to confirm its own athlete in the top-three of the pursuit, n & eacute; to make comebacks from afar. The best placement of the blue in a pursuit champion & egrave; 5 & ​​deg; instead of Patrick Favre in 1997.
* In 7 cases (46.7%) is & egrave; attended the back-to-back, ie the 'victorious athlete dell''oro in sprint then conquered that too dell''inseguimento: Pavel Rostovtsev in 2001; Ole Einar Bj ø rndalen in 2005, 2007 and 2009; Martin Fourcade in 2012 and Emil Hegle Svendsen in 2013.
* In 1998 the 'tracking Pokljuka AFFECT memorize options world title (all''epoca the format was not included in the Olympic Games program) and Russian Vladimir Dratchev won starting with bib number 1. Therefore the success & egrave; considered back-to-back despite the sprint of the day before had value only to the World Cup.
The 'worst athlete ranked in the sprint capable of winning the' World Championship gold pursuit & egrave; Viktor Maigourov, he imposed in 1997 with the bib number 12. As for the medals instead pi & ugrave comeback; impressive & egrave; that of Finland Paavo Puurunen, bronze in 2003, starting with the number 21.
& Nbsp;
SEASON 2015-2016Nella season were played 7 sprints in which they are imposed only 3 different athletes and they are on the podium a total of 10 different men.
Simon Schempp has excelled in 3 different occasions (Hochfilzen, Pokljuka, Antholz). 2 are the claims of Martin Fourcade (& ouml; stersund, Canmore) and Johannes B ø (Ruhpolding, Presque Isle).
Interestingly, the winning bidder will be then repeated, demonstrating how there - at least as regards the first place - a kind of triarchy in this format.
Schempp and Fourcade are also athletes to boast more & ugrave; podiums in the current season (4). German (3-0-1) associates a third place to his three wins, mind French (2-1-1) got a second and a third place.
Albeit without ever excelled, Tarjei B ø you & egrave; classified 3 times in the top-three (0-1-2). They are two podiums Johannes B ø (2-0-0), Anton Shipulin (0-2-0) and Ole Einar Bj ø rndalen (0-1-1).
