Sprint of women: Three top ten places for DSV

It's almost a bit of crazing. Although Franziska Press shot in the World Cup sprint of Öresund just next to it, but this is a mistake was again too much. I finally want to shoot this zero, zero, that annoys me a bit, Prussian said on Thursday. Lying on a podium course, the 27-year-old biathlete risked a lot in standing shooting and conceded a penalty. The 150 extras cost the ex-relay world champion at the end of their potential second World Cup victory, but definitely the second place they missed as fifth and thus best Germans by 11.7 seconds.

Already in the preseason, the World Cup Total edges had just missed one or the other podium. But overall, I'm satisfied, that's a good starting position for Saturday, said Prussia of the German Press Agency with a view to the first tracking race of the Olympia winter this weekend.

The strong German team result at the first win of the flawless Austrian Lisa Theresa Mauser rounded over the 7.5 kilometers Denise Herrmann (1 error / + + 43.1 seconds) as ninth and the faultless Vanessa Vogt (+ 44.4 seconds) in ten. The 24-year-old Thuringia Vogt was surprisingly early as a third German to Prussia and Herrmann already the Olympic standard for Beijing.

I had no feeling at all, because I did the first one, I did not want to go out.

Herrmann had to fight at minus 13 degrees Celsius and light snowfall with cold hands, a taste of Beijing, where it should be bitterly cold in February. I had no feeling at all, I did not like the first, I did not want to push, Herrmann said, whose first shot was the only one wrong. Then she had to reload an extraatrace with her ice fingers. I left a lot of time. But the rest was okay, it's right in the right direction, said the 32-year-old, which focuses on the winter games in China runners not yet on the absolute top leaving.

Vogt: The Olympia norm was not so present yet

The German top duo convinced on the heavy route. Herrmann, who had brought the first German podium last Saturday the first German podiums square last Saturday, delivered the fourth best running time, Press the seventh. Although Vogt can not keep upstairs yet, it could establish itself with other good races in the World Cup team. The Olympics norm was not so present yet. I want to show every race that I belong to the team, she said the DPA: Now you run with those who have previously cheered on TV. Not in shape are Janine Hectic (25th) and Vanessa Hind (53.).
