Dorothea Wierer unlucky protagonist in the Hochfilzen women's pursuit.

The holder of the Biathlon World Cup, who started from tenth place in the sprint on Friday, presented herself without errors to the final series, fighting for the podium.

A mistake at the last shot forced the blue to a penalty lap, from which she came out ready to challenge the Oeberg sisters and the Norwegian Tandrevold for second place, but a slip in the hardest climb of the track made her lose contact and finish a fifth place from a bitter taste.


    The Norwegian Tiril Eckhoff won, preceding Hanna and Elvira Oeberg, with Tandrevold down from the podium.


    Proof of pride also for Lisa Vittozzi, taken for thirtieth. Sappadina fixed her shooting problems, finishing in 13th place with a single error, while Irene Lardschneider closed 58 / a with five errors. In the overall standings, Roeiseland climbs to 355 points against 351 of Hanna Oeberg. Wierer is seventh with 256 and Vittozzi twentieth with 137. The mass start is scheduled for tomorrow, with Wierer and Vittozzi present.
