Russia (bbabo.net), - The Olympic champion in the men's biathlon pursuit will be determined at the Beijing Olympics. Men will start after girls in the same discipline.
The sprint took place the day before, and it determines in what order and how far behind the athletes will go to the race. The starting numbers of our guys are as follows: 4th Maxim Tsvetkov - 0:41 from the Norwegian Johannes Be, who will open today's pursuit, 11th Eduard Latypov - 1:14, 19th Daniil Serokhvostov - 1:38, 38th - Alexander Loginov - 2:15.
In the sprint race, Maxim Tsvetkov demonstrated impeccable shooting and stopped a step away from the medal. One miss left Tsvetkov without a medal in the individual race at these Games. Let's hope that today our biathlete will succeed.
In the last pursuit of this season, which took place in January in Ruhpolding, the Frenchman Quentin Fillon Maillet won, Alexander Loginov was the second, and the Belarusian Anton Smolsky was the third.
Text online broadcast of the men's biathlon pursuit race will begin at 13:45 Moscow time.
