1:35 p.m
The Austrian relay team
The ÖSV sends Tamara Steiner, Anna Gandler, Lisa Theresa Hauser and Anna Juppe to the track in Nove Mesto. Anna Gandler in particular was able to show her performance in the World Championship races and will of course want to continue her form today. It should definitely be enough for a good placement in the top ten for the relay.

This is how Switzerland enters the race
Elisa Gasparin, Amy Baserga, Aita Gasparin and Lena Häcki-Groß should do it for Switzerland. In all likelihood there will be no medal. But who knows, a lot is possible in biathlon. What will be particularly interesting is whether final runner Häcki-Groß has slowly found her way back to her usual strength after her cold.

Germany with personnel changes
The DSV team will tackle the medal hunt with Janina Hettich-Walz, Selina Grotian, Vanessa Voigt and Sophia Schneider. The latter replaces Franziska Preuß, who woke up with a sore throat and wants to get fit again for the mass start tomorrow. Whether this combination can be enough for a medal depends on the form of the team, but also on the performance of the competition. The four of them definitely have what it takes, but Norway, France and Sweden in particular are really tough guys.
