On Friday, the biathletes would have run sprints in the World Cup in Holmenkollen. Due to thick fog, so-called classic Holmenkollen weather. The start was first postponed for half an hour, but then the decision was made to move the competition until tomorrow.
– Absolutely the right decision, you didn't see the dots at all now, says Elvira Öberg to SVT Sport and continues:
- It was total file bunker, as we like to say, it should be a lot nicer tomorrow
Now the riders get to reload and aim for tomorrow's race instead.
"Now that's the way it is, so we get out and train instead.
As the sprint is postponed, the chase start is cancelled and the riders will instead run a mass start. Elvira Öberg had a small chance of winning it. Now she finishes second.
