Simon and Braisaz-Bouchet come to the shooting range together.
Preuss is part of the third group.
Race:
The laps are short, only two kilometers are run each time.
It goes to the shooting range relatively often.
Race:
Many athletes now start behind them in short intervals.
Including Franziska Preuß.
Race:
Both are among the fastest runners in the field.
They will set the pace here and it won't be small.
Race:
It's starting.
Julia Simon and Justine Braisaz-Bouchet open this chaser.
Before the race:
It's about to start, the women are running into the stadium, which is once again sold out.
Before the race:
60 women start.
Before the race:
But perhaps the German ski technicians have found a solution.
However, if the skis go as badly as the men did yesterday, no medal will be possible today.
Before the race:
It's not good news that it's raining again today and the temperatures are in the plus range.
Before the race:
So far the German material has not shown its best side at this Biathlon World Cup.
The mild and wet temperatures are not suitable for German skis.
Before the race:
The three other Germans only have a theoretical chance of winning a medal.
Vanessa Voigt is only 1:43 minutes behind, but she clearly had problems running these days.
Sophia Schneider is 2:04 minutes behind, Janina Hettich-Walz is 2:15 minutes behind.
Despite the unpredictable format, this is a big burden.
Before the race:
Franziska Preuß starts 1:05 minutes behind the leaders.
It sounds like a lot, but in the Pursuer everything is possible.
Before the race:
There is a clear gap behind.
Lou Jeanmonnot and Sophie Chauveau, both also from France, are already a good 40 seconds behind.
Before the race:
The race is based on the results of Friday's sprint.
The Frenchwoman Julia Simon won there just ahead of her compatriot Justine Braisaz-Bouchet.
Only five seconds separate the two and they will probably go on the first lap together.
Before the race:
On this long and exciting biathlon day, the women go first.
The chase lasts 10 kilometers and is shot four times.

Based on the impressions of this Biathlon World Cup so far, Preuß is the only realistic medal option for the German biathletes.

French are the top favorites for the medals

The men start at 5:05 p.m., run 12.5 kilometers and also have to go to the shooting range four times.
After the sprint on Saturday, the starting position for the German men is difficult.
Benedikt Doll, Johannes Kühn and Philipp Nawrath are already
over 90 seconds behind the leaders
.
Philipp Horn is 2:11 minutes behind, a German medal would be a small biathlon miracle.
Three Norwegians will open the race.
Sturla Holm Laegreid starts ahead of Johannes Thingnes Boe and Vetle Sjaastad Christiansen.
In
pursuit races, however, their own dynamics often arise
and an exciting battle for the medals is imminent.
