France with Quentin Fillon Maillet and Lou Jeanmonnot secured the gold ahead of Italy’s Giacomel and Lisa Vittozzi. Norway had to settle for the bronze. – A medal is a medal. In the pairs relay, anything can happen and we showed ourselves from a good side, says Patrick Oberegger to news. – How do you think Ingrid (Landmark Tandrevold) is now? – We focus on the positive things and go into the next competition and try to be one notch better than today, Oberegger continues. For France and Norway, it was almost exactly the same going into the final and decisive shootout. But Tandrevold, who has struggled with just that for large parts of the championship, had to go out in the penalty round after three misses. Thus, France went out in the lead. The Italians also chased behind, with Vitozzi, that duel eventually became too tough. And Norway took a bronze place. Having struggled throughout the championship, Tandrevold has described standing shooting during the WC as both easy and difficult. At the start of the hunt on Sunday, three misses in a standing series, for the fourth time in a row in the championship, was the highlight. She nevertheless got a boost when she filled up in the last series, after receiving a message from trainer Siegfried Mazet on the way into the stand.

Then I do it, and it works much better, Tandrevold told news after the start of the hunt. And for a long time it seemed that everything was right for Norway’s leading female biathlete. Intense duel Thingnes Bø, who started the ball for Norway, got two misses and corresponding extra shots in his first leg. This allowed him to send Tandrevold out behind France in the lead. Tandrevold coped with the pressure lying down and, like French Lou Jeanmonnot, got all the flashes straight down. But it was primarily Tandrevold’s standing shooting that caused great excitement. But again to Tandrevold all blinks down. So did France – again. Thus, there was to be an intense duel between the two nations. Because both Quentin Fillon Maillet and Thingnes Bø had to use two extra shots each, on their last standing shooting. Jeanmonnot and Tandrevold skated almost in sync on the last prone shooting. But when France clawed it back with a shot, Tandrevold gained a lead of 3.6 seconds. But in the end Tandrevold was missed three times, who also had to go to the penalty round. Thus the gold slipped away for Norway.
