Italy’s top biathlete Tommaso Giacomel has shown in an impressive way in a cross-country race that he is on his back on his back without a rifle. In this case even faster than Germany’s best cross -country skier Friedrich Moch.
Biathlon star Tommaso Giacomel set an impressive statement as part of the Five Nations Trophy and won the cross-country race over 10 km on Wednesday. The 25-year-old came across the line after 25:16 minutes and thus prevailed against numerous prominent competitors.
The struck also included some athletes who are usually on the road in the cross-country world cup. For example, the German Friedrich Moch, who became twelfth in the overall World Cup in the 2024/25 season, but had to be satisfied with third place on Tuesday. His gap to the winner was 35 seconds at the finish line.

Eight seconds after Moch, another well-known name from the biathlon circus finished: Quentin Fillon Maillet. The Frenchman was still faster than Johannes Kühn, Roman Rees and David Zobel. For the three German biathletes, the final accounts only submitted nine, 15 and 22.
A few days ago, he had already written the Finnish biathlon legend Kaisa Mäkäräinen cross-country ski lines in the far north when she won the first stage at the so-called “Lapponia Ski Week” and prevailed against the assembled field after 60 kilometers.
It is not unusual that biathletes and biathletes make a detour to the cross-country ski camp after the end of their season. There are enough opportunities to carry out races far into the spring, because among other things, the personnel effort is significantly lower, since no shooting range is prepared and certain safety requirements must be observed.
