– I was angry, because maybe I lost first place today. I don’t know, but I was very disappointed. French Quentin Fillon Maillet had to explain himself after he threw both poles and weapons after finishing at the joint start in Anterselva. – It is not a good thing to be so angry, but sometimes we are very happy and shout out our feelings, and sometimes we are very angry. But, children, don’t follow my example today, continues the Frenchman. Neither Endre Strømsheim nor Sturla Holm Lægreid caught the situation, but when news showed them the video they had the following to say about the situation: – It is clear that the Norwegian dominance is frustrating for the foreigners. But yes, they have to train then, says Strømsheim – Unsportsmanlike in that case to act like that there. Hope it was just a moment where he lost his head, and that he apologizes afterwards, says Holm Lægreid. Worst season since 1986 The Frenchman looked set to take France’s first podium in an individual race on the men’s side this season. In the final round, he finished second behind Vetle Sjåstad Christiansen. The Frenchman had a good lead down to the Norwegian duo Vebjørn Sørum and Johannes Dale-Skjevdal. – For every pole vault he takes, he approaches a meter here, says news’s biathlon commentator Ingrid Glomnes about when Dale-Skjevdal ate up Fillon-Maillet. The latter was more than 40 seconds behind Fillon Maillet, but he passed just before the finish line. In addition, super joker Vebjørn Sørum passed the Frenchman and took away third place. – I hoped I would have enough time to stay on the podium, but that didn’t happen, says Fillon Maillet. The French team must have struggled mightily with their skis. Four Frenchmen took part in Sunday’s joint start. Of them, Fillon Maillet was the fastest on the course, but all the way down to 21st place out of the 30 athletes at the start. This year’s season has been the worst for France since 1986. Triple Norwegian is for the 23rd time in history The podium was once again decorated in Norwegian colours. Vetle Sjåstad Christiansen was crowned at the top, followed by Johannes Dale-Skjevdal and Vebjørn Sørum – It’s triple Norwegian for the 23rd time in history, says Glomnes. Because when World Cup leader Johannes Thingnes Bø skated away already at the first shooting, the other Norwegians seized the opportunity to take the victory at the joint start. Stryningen finished as number 28 out of a total of 30, only Sturla Holm Lægreid did worse. He delivered four misses and went last from the first shooting.
