Biathlon, mixed relay: a sprint for the money
A crazy end to a race that was just as crazy.
The Blues of the mixed relay in biathlon, Anaïs Chevalier-Bouchet, Julia Simon, Emilien Jacquelin and Quentin Fillon Maillet, won a beautiful silver medal after a race in which they were first left behind before taking the lead following from a phenomenal shot by Julia Simon.
Quentin Fillon-Maillet finally loses the sprint against a Johannes Boe of the great days, but still offers his first medal to France.
Silver medal for the Blues 🇫🇷!!
