Friday, the French Justine Braisaz-Bouchet won the Individual (15 km) of Anterselva (Italy), counting for the Biathlon World Cup, ahead of her compatriot Julia Simon.

Braisaz-Bouchet (25) signs his first success of the season and the third of his career, filling up with confidence two weeks before the Beijing Olympics (February 4-20).

The Frenchwoman's last victory dated back to December 5, 2019 (Individual in Ostersund in Sweden) and she had only been on the podium once since the start of winter.

Simon revives

Very safe in shooting (19/20), Braisaz-Bouchet was able to show off her superiority on skis (best time) to win in the absence of several top names on the circuit, such as the leader of the general classification, the Norwegian Marte Olsbu Roeiseland, or the Swedish sisters Elvira and Hanna Oeberg, who skipped over to better prepare for the Olympics.

Simon confirms for his part his current good dispositions.

After a catastrophic start, the biathlete from Les Saisies (25) recovered well from the Grand-Bornand stage in mid-December and recorded her fourth podium of the season despite two rifle errors.
