Stage of Russia
The first girl ran sprints and confirmed several primary findings Östersund. First, today Podchufarova – team leader and the results, and the level of training. Secondly, until ready to shoot accurately, not all athletes, even in good weather. Third, Tatiana Akimova not reach the level of the first team. Olga Podchufarova ran the race with confidence, showing the best progress in the team: +34.2 from Makaraynen, claimed the medals, but two misses at the front threw it into the second decade. Catherine and Catherine Shumilova Yurlova closed 10 out of 10, but lost on the course of more than a minute (1: 09.1 and 1: 14.2). Daria Virolainen failed and boundaries and distance and rolled to the fortieth place.
Harassment girl ran much better – everything except Virolainen improved their positions. Podchufarova until the last turn of the shoot accurately and to apply for the medal, but one mistake – and Olga finished seventh. Too bad, if you recall Ostersund. It is important that the progress of athletes was again stable and competitive (both in the top ten circles, and in the amount of – +29.7 seconds). Catherine Yurlova almost repeated the feat Tiril Eckhoff broke from 30th to fifth. But if Norwegian, with two penalties running into one leg with Makaraynen then Yurlova lost to little more than half a minute at the same 18 from 20 at the turn.
If you treat the results of the women’s team, without fanaticism and excess of expectations, the stage in Hochfilzen is recorded in the asset. He composed a lot of points, and in the Cup of Nations gets better. Girls clearly moving in the direction of the best shooting and operational readiness, they still win medals at both the Cup and the world championships. The main thing – not too shuffle rows, trusting the same Virolainen, who is worried, stung by the failure, but be sure to return to last year’s level.
Male Sprint frankly pleased. Awards there, but the main three of the team (SHipulin, Garanichev baby) close to pester the podium. Anton Shipulin confident working on physical readiness, and is clearly on the right path. Unlike Östersund, in Austria, team leader showed the third course in 18.2 seconds behind the leader and fought for the victory, but missed and missed Simon Schempp. Eugene Garanichev and Dmitry Malyshko went sprint significantly less, but pulled himself into the boat by accurate shooting. Timofey Lapshin and Alexei Slepov sprint failed, but if the speed of the first weak partly due to the late start number (Tarja Be, for example, found a 101-th number of reason for the defeat), the course Slepova unpleasantly surprised after a successful start in Sweden.
In pursuit Anton Shipulin reminded himself last year when an equal fighting for victory with Schempp and Martin Fourcade. Judging by the shape and mood, and the trio will play the World Cup, of course, if the Frenchman will come off not too far away. Confidently spent the race Maxim Tsvetkov, lost in the sprint to the distant 29th place. Having played 18 positions on a clean shooting and a decent speed (+35.5 from Fourcade), he stopped at the threshold of ten. Garanichev Malyshko and claimed the medal, but missed three times and rolled into the middle of the second ten. Over excitement in contact racing to work on.
Women’s relay race was held messy, Germans and Norwegians with the French were given the chance to rivals misses the turn. National Belarus, Ukraine, Poland, Italy and the Czech Republic the opportunity to use, but the Russian team could not. Catherine Shumilova bad passed the first stage, two additional cartridge and passing the baton in seven seconds behind the leaders. Anna Nikulin stayed in the leading group until the second shooting and lagged very gradually. But four misses at the front gave the team a circle, without which women’s relay lately not do.
Catherine Yurlova did everything I could, having circles with one additional cartridge, and after playing 10 seconds. The speed of progress it has almost caught up Shumilov (+9.8 and +12.6 from the leader) and pulled the team to the top ten. Olga Podchufarova passed its stage is not as good as expected (+21.6 from the leader), but has beaten all the targets the first time and led the team in eighth place. In the Nations Cup women climbed to ninth place. The nearest rival – the Belarusian and Polish teams.
Men’s relay started quietly, as happens when Alexei Volkov. After a stage with one penalty, he lost only 10 seconds restless Lett Rastorguev. Eugene Garanichev shooting coped better and not let the swift Johannes Bø, earning gap to 30 seconds by the French, and in a minute – the Germans. Dmitry Malyshko relay started the season with a recurrence of last year’s mistakes again had the worst stage of the four, but lost only senior Boe. The reason for the relative failure of the steel blunders on both borders, because the progress of the Norwegian Dmitry conceded only 8 seconds. Anton Shipulin the last stage worked almost perfectly, adding a fire at the front. Well, that Martin Fourcade had not caught up with Anton – stop the fall before the second shooting, and with the leader of the team Svendsen handled confidently.
Sammari stage
German counterattack
In Ostersund German team remained on the sidelines, in Hochfilzen team went on the offensive. It began with a triple success in the sprint, who supported Simon Schempp. In pursuit of the winner of the sprint Hildebrand just failed to shooting, but jumped ahead laura dahlmeier and Hammerschmidt retained second place. Schempp did not keep Martin Fourcade, but left behind Shipulina and scored important points in the World Cup. Dramatically developed for the women’s relay team in Germany. On the first lap a little girl inferior rivals, but no more than 20 seconds. At the finish Francis Preuss went with a handicap of ten seconds over the French team and 20 – in front of the Italians. But the speed of Dorothy Wierer was significantly higher (+18.4), and she won the sprint finish.
Elusive Fourcade
Martin is set to start winning all the races and has already provided good start overall. In the sprint, the Frenchman was again the fastest, but do not keep up with Simon Schempp – summed prone to slip. But in the pursuit even two mistakes on the turn did not affect the result – Martin first with a good margin on the go. A small detachment from Schempp in 9 seconds record, it was clear that, if necessary, add Fourcade and overtake any opponent on the track. Johannes Boe could compete with Martin, but he kicked away (14 m) and nastrelyal just five laps. Judging by the results, and the velocity, Martin is close to peak form, the decline of which is scheduled for the New Year holidays and the January stages to the World Cup to come back to the top.
The first medal Shipulina
Anton ran – and this is more important than bronze. Well, that is the second medal at the national team and the first at the vice-leader of last season, but also returned to the speed and accurate shooting. In pursuit SHipulin made from a position of strength, not lost in the top three. Close to it is a target more and the stadium in Hochfilzen have roared with delight, watching finishing disassembly and Anton Martin. While the leader of the Russian team away, the gap over a hundred points, but the form is growing and with it the results. The main thing now – to not think about the glasses, and tune in every race. Ahead – Pokljuka, Slovenia, a place of triumph Shipulina the season 2014/15.
Relay feat Anton could be much more prosaic – Svendsen missed just two at the front and SHipulin preparing to quietly leave to victory. But the leader of the Russian team took two more bullets. Before the Norwegian was ten seconds, which left half of the final round, and then everything went dictation Shipulina. Lifting, overtaking, accurate descent and safe operation at the finish line – it seems that Emil Hegle not hope to overtake Anton. It is significant that after finishing the main achievement SHipulin described how he prodyshatsya on stage came at top speed and tactically outplayed the opponent.
Yellow jersey Soukalova
None of the girls until they won two races, and more than two podiums no one picked up. In the context of an equal fight until Kaisa Makaraynen repairs rifle Soukalova chances look better than others. It is stable and able to minimize losses. Gaby form is not ideal, but is ahead of the main starts. Franziska Hildebrand nearly took away jersey from Gym shoes in Hochfilzen, but she gathered, and the relative failure of the sprint bronze compensated pursuit. Marie Dorin Habert sour, Dorothy Wierer every effort saved for the relay, the other girls were even more modest. If in Pokljuka, where the double sprint + Pursuit will add mass start, Soukalova again falls below the fifth place, the new year will meet in the Czech yellow jersey as the season 2013/14.
Breakthrough stage
Maren Hammerschmidt
German coach bravely put up for the World Cup juniors, even without significant results behind. So athletes get a chance even before earning a high self-esteem from the golden success Cup IBU. The best result Maren in continental competitions – the sixth place in the prostitutes, but in the season-2011/12, she earned the first points on the cup stage in Khanty-Mansiysk (26th place). Since the first German team was not fixed, but got another chance in a more mature age. And admirably proved in Hochfilzen.
Starting under the late 106th number Maren accurately hit all the targets and claimed the gold, but to prevent a broken track. Hildebrand course she lost 22.4 seconds and added the German sprint podium with Miriam Gössner. Harassment Hammerschmidt start fine, but two errors on the lines, in contrast to the one at laura dahlmeier deprived her of certain victory. Marin went the distance with Hildebrand, but at the finish lifted the tempo and not admitted Gabriela Soukalová until Francis gave Ceske bronze. Marin lost to progress even rivals for the top three, and the gap between Makaraynen was 34.5 seconds. Much more important is that it is sure to keep the pace of the group and retained strength to finish. Hardly laura dahlmeier would simply promahnis Maren at one time less.
Comment stage
“After the first stage in Ostersund hohfiltsenskie condition please. I just started to get in shape. Much of what remains to be working. Already I pleased that I got here for the first time this season on the podium. A bit upset because of the fourth place in the sprint, but I’ve always loved to run pursuit. Not without the error happened. Customizable for the race. Third place – a good result, “- Anton Shipulin radiates optimism.
“It’s amazing to be back in the top ten. It was nice to go to the start in the yellow leader’s jersey. I tried to show a clean shooting was very focused on the turn. Unfortunately, most do not correctly managed “- Gabriela Soukalová summed up the pursuit.
“In the sprint guys did not have” physics “on the last lap. Funktsionalka brakes and Shipulina and Garanicheva “- Anfisa Reztsova know, you should work on the leaders of the men’s team.
“It was a Super-fast race, sorry, I lost a bit of time. I wanted to start at the beginning, but it turned out that the Norwegian guys already distributed among a number. Of course, I was upset. Probably because of the numbers and missed the victory. I hope at the World Cup is not repeated, “- Tarja Be suffered from bullying in the team, but made conclusions for the future.
Maren Hammerschmidt, even after strong sprint did not count on a medal in the pursuit: “I do not think that will speak again as well. I tried a lot of work. On the track I felt good. If shooting composed, necessarily have to run fast. Here I still shoot successfully. ”
Olga Podchufarova far from panic, “to do all that she could. It biathlon. I think for the race it was the best result. Little has changed the scheme of shooting while standing on the race. It was all done in order to fully concentrate on every shot. I can say that I’m in no hurry. And the reason is not in the desire to slip early run at a distance. Skiing worked great – thank you very much service team. On the last lap I had a good lighthouse. I am trying to catch up with the opponent to get into the top six. ”
Franziska Hildebrand dissatisfied with the transition of his coach the Russian team: “To be honest, the news that Gross has decided to replace the national team, has become for me a real shock. We were all very surprised to learn about the negotiations with the Russian team. And when Ricco he announced his decision and sign a contract in the moment, I was really shocked. Yes, but life goes on, and of course I was happy for him. Working with the Russian team will be a good experience for such a specialist as Gross, and gives him an excellent opportunity to develop further in the profession. Although for me it is all, of course, not so good. ”
