The canceled 3rd competition at the Four Hills Tournament caused a lot of chaos for the broadcasters ARD and ZDF.
Several shipments have to be omitted.
Munich / Innsbruck - Chaos prevailed not only at the Bergiselschanze in Innsbruck, but also at the TV stations.
The third competition of the Four Hills Tournament was supposed to start on Tuesday at 1.30 p.m.
Foehn winds thwarted the whole thing.
After the trial round had to be canceled, the entire event was finally canceled after what felt like an eternal odyssey of postponements.
The entourage moved on to Bischofshofen, where the third competition is to take place on Wednesday at 4.30 p.m. - Bergisel is completely eliminated!

Because of the postponement, the public broadcasters have now also got into a mess.
The ZDF is now taking over for the ARD
, from 12.55 p.m. the qualification from Bischofshofen from the Paul-Ausserleitner-Schanze will be shown.

Then the first shows the fifth part of the biathlon documentary "Without a rifle - life after biathlon", before switching to the Ski World Cup in Zagreb to show the men's slalom.
The jumping in Bischofshofen starts live on ARD at 4.30 p.m. and to round off the winter sports day, the second run of the men's slalom from Zagreb will be shown from 6.40 p.m.
As a result, the telenovela "Rote Rosen" (2.10 p.m.) is not included in the Erste.
In addition, the documentary "Myth of the Four Hills Tournament - 70 years of German-Austrian borderline experiences" will be replaced by the biathlon documentary.
In addition, the midday magazine from 1 p.m. can only be seen on ZDF.
For Thursday, when the fourth competition takes place regularly in Bischofshofen, there will be no major changes, as the qualification, which was actually planned for Wednesday, will now be held on Thursday afternoon just before the competition at 2.30 p.m.
Both competitions will be held in the first round in the knockout mode that is familiar from the tour.
The whole thing can be seen, as intended, in the first.
