At the last World Cup World Cup of the biathletes, a few of the German starter had to pause exhaustion and infectious. Now they have reported back – with one exception.
The personnel worries of the German biathlon team will be less shortly before the start of the World Cup in Lenzerheide. After the youngsters Julia Tannheimer was most recently lacking in the dress rehearsal in Antholz due to illness and Danilo Riethmüller had a break, both of them show up-rising form before the World Cup start in the mixed relay on Wednesday (2.30 p.m. in the live ticker).
Bitterling: “Promising”
“Your current training stand looks promising. How quickly she finds it back into the competition rhythm will be shown in the first races”Said sports director Felix Bitterling from the German Ski Association about 19 -year -old Ulmerin Tannheimer. Vanessa Voigt, who ended her season prematurely for health reasons, will definitely be missing.
The 25-year-old Riethmüller makes it against it “A strong impression and is ready for his missions”said Bitterling. Anyone who is at the start of the World Cup in the four -member team in Switzerland should still be decided.
Prussia with anticipation on the World Cup
A candidate is also Philipp Nawrath, who had to struggle with a slight cold after the World Cup in Antholz. “He seems to have recovered,” said Bitterling, adding: “It remains to be seen whether he can build on his full level of performance directly or need one or two races.”
Medal hope Franziska Preuss complains about no problems.
