shame about the last 2 for Rastorgujevs for the sheer hilarity of it all
Edit: a slim podium chance is still there

In an interview she just mentioned that she wanted to keep her pace after the 1st shooting, not wanting to go full gas. She stood up almost together with Tiril Eckhoff (like 2-3 secs behind) but after the penalty loop she was already losing 7 secs. It is interesting that while Tiril blitzed to the front in no time and Veronika stayed visibly behind, in the end she just lost 4 secs to Tiril in that loop and began shooting almost with the front group. It was a result of the front group gradually slowing down.Libertine Seguros said:...
On more pressing matters, do you know if something happened to her (Vitková, not Soukalová) on the second lap today? She was skiing with Eckhoff after the first shoot, then she lost a bunch of time and wound up with the people who'd missed 2 shots. Her pace the rest of the race was absolutely fine, so it was a very sudden and unexpected loss of 15-20 seconds, did she have a technical problem or a fall or something do you know, because it just seemed odd on her current form and the cameras didn't pick anything up as they were busy with Mäkäräinen's chase.
I'm waiting...Kokoso said:Usually it is. But if somebody Norwegian, Sweden or Germa won his first WC I'm almost sure it'd be discussed. I may be patriotic...but I'm sure about this one as well.
Your sarcasm detector needs recalibrating, obviously.Kokoso said:See Libertine? That's what I've told you.
I don't think so but you should check yoursLibertine Seguros said:Your sarcasm detector needs recalibrating, obviously.
It was sarcastic of courseKokoso said:I don't think so but you should check yours![]()
And I understood that of course but that didn't change the fact that you called it . That's why I was sarcastic in my reply but Libertine didn't catch it.Flamin said:It was sarcastic of course![]()
That was really something special. Centimetres between top three and Svendsen two seconds behind in finish...times are changing. Martin Fourcade nowhere to be seen. Just in time for Libertine to start love himroundabout said:Great finish in the MS in Ruhpolding with a 3-way tie (on time).
Svendsen must have had nothing left to finish 4 in a 5 man sprint.
Top-9 within 9 seconds as well.
Why not Slesinger?Libertine Seguros said:It'll take more than a single race weekend of going badly for me to love Fourcade, but I did feel rather sorry for Fillon-Maillet at the end there. He should have won that, but either he thought he'd done enough or he timed his strides badly at the end there, because Schempp just stole it from him.
