Last rehearsal for the best biathletes in the world before the Olympic Games! While the world of winter sports already has only the opening ceremony of Milan-Cortina on February 6, Lou Jeanmonnot and others are meeting in Nove Mesto (Czech Republic), from Thursday to Sunday, for their sixth round of the Biathlon World Cup of the season.
Four days of competition are planned in total, on a circuit used to hosting this type of event. On the men’s side, the French team will start with a short individual (15km) on Thursday, then a mass start on Sunday. On the women’s side, same thing: individual (12.5km), Friday, then mass-start, Sunday. A single mixed relay and a mixed relay on Saturday complete the program.
The biathlon events can be followed on the L’Équipe channel and Eurosport. The races start at 6:15 p.m. on Thursday 22 and Friday 23, while they start at 1:40 p.m. on Saturday 24 and 3:15 p.m. on Sunday 25 January.
