MEN'S SPRINT: Start at 2:30 p.m.

1:30 p.m .

: I'll get back to you in a few minutes for the pre-race and the first departures, scheduled for 2:30 p.m.

In the meantime, I leave you with this paper from my esteemed colleague William on the International Biathlon Federation, which will try to gain transparency after years of corruption revealed by a recent report.

1:30 p.m .

: The Norwegian army, Boe in the lead, obviously a big favorite in this format.

But it's a one day race and anything can happen.

We count on QFM, Emilien and the other Blues to respond.

Yo la mif du bibi.

Back to Pokljuka today for the start of the individual events in these Worlds.

These gentlemen are going to sprint, and we are going to have a blast (well, we hope). 

After the start of the mixed relay, serious business begins this afternoon in these Pokljuka Worlds.

Place in effect for the men's sprint, as usual essential for two reasons.

First of all because it offers the possibility of a nice medal, of course, but also because it is decisive for the pursuit of Sunday.

In this time trial, we will be able to gauge everyone's state of fitness.

Will the French be in the game to resist the Norwegian armada, impressive since the start of the season?

We hope so, even if the sprint is not necessarily the event where QFM, Jacquelin or Claude express themselves best. 

>> Meet here a little after 2:00 p.m. for the aerial connection ...
