Hello everyone ! Welcome to this new biathlon live dedicated to our French women, who are enjoying the start of the season. There are still not that many sports where we place three representatives among the Top 7 as has been the case since the start of the “bibi” season. So let’s remember where we are with the forces present before this women’s short individual from Antholz-Anterselva (Italy): Justine Braisaz-Bouchet is second, Julia Simon sixth and Lou Jeanmonnot just behind her. And again, you are probably aware that Justine Braisaz-Bouchet was at the top of the general classification until the previous World Cup stage in Rupholding (Germany) last week.
Just dethroned by the Norwegian Ingrid Tandrevold, our best French chance will be closely watched for this 12.5 km of the day in Italy, before the relays on Saturday and the mass start on Sunday. Note that a total of six French women are there this Friday: Justine Braisaz-Bouchet, but also Julia Simon, Lou Jeanmonnot, Sophie Chauveau, Jeanne Richard and Gilonne Guigonnat. Enough to provide us with our share of strong emotions at coffee time, you’ll see.
>> Join us here from 1:20 p.m., before the start of this women’s individual short at 1:40 p.m.
