The Biathlon World Cup consists of 9 stages, and it is during these nine stages that the standings are compiled, according to the results of which, after the last stage, the winner will be determined. Basically, about 3-5 biathletes apply for victory at the same time, and in order to win the title, they need to consistently finish in the top ten at each race, then they will receive points that will be included in the overall standings 2018/2019.

The overall score of the 2018/2019 Biathlon World Cup changes after each stage. Russia, Ukraine and Belarus are highlighted in a special color. We hope that this season our athletes will take their worthy places.

Last year, the best among ours was Anton Shipulin, who took 2nd place in the total, and among women - Tatyana Akimova, who finished the season 16th.

But this year the World Championship is taking place, the results of which also count towards the overall standings.

Biathlon World Cup 2018/2019 - schedule and stages

The first stage of the World Cup will last until December 9, as mentioned above. After that, the athletes will have time to rest and "reshuffle", but already on December 13, the second stage of the Cup starts in Hochfilzen, Austria. In total, the season will have nine stages of the Cup and the World Championship, which will be held in Östersund, Sweden.

It cannot be said that the Cup stages will not be accepted in Russia this season, although Tyumen undoubtedly received guests last season at the highest level. Even Martin Fourcade was surprised by the country's hospitality, although he was the first to want to go on strike and refuse to travel to Russia due to the doping scandal.

But the stages of the cup will take place this year in Canada and the USA - the biathletes have not been there for a long time. By the way, the stages are still under a big and bold question mark, because some of the teams refuse to go overseas to compete. They insist that the stages be transferred to the European continent, otherwise they threaten to simply boycott the competition.

World Cup stage in Pokljuka - results

It is too early to sum up even the initial results of the first stage, because out of the eight planned races, only two took place. In the single mixed, our guys, Ulyana Kaisheva and Evgeny Garanichev, managed to come in seventh. Irina Starykh, Alexander Loginov, Dmitry Malyshko and Katerina Yurlova-Perkht took part in the mixed relay from Russia. The team managed to take fourth place.

Yes, the cup started without medals for our team, but no one expected that the guys from the first start would immediately become the leaders? In general, the minimum task for them from the coaches is the following - to get into the top three teams. Will they be able to? It is difficult to guess so far.

There are many factors to consider when making forecasts. The first is that the leader of the team, Anton Shipulin, is not yet at the starts. He is preparing for the Izhevsk rifle and can only join the team in the middle of the Cup. At the same time, not only Shipulin are “fed up” - Malyshko and Loginov can show excellent results, and Garanichev, it seems, intends to restore his reputation after the disastrous 2017/2018 season.

As for the women's half of the national team, we will miss Tatyana Akimova, who for the previous two seasons literally “took out” all the fair sex from our country. This year, all hopes are on the newcomers, as well as on Yurlova and Kaisheva.

In general, the first past races of the stage ranked the teams as follows:

Russian national team at the Biathlon World Cup 2018/2019

Many new names have entered the national team this year. The thing is that the selection was carried out as openly as possible - both old-timers of the team and representatives of the regions and the reserve stock could take part in the training camp in Kontiolahti. As a result, Maxim Tsvetkov and Anton Babikov, who failed to show themselves from the best side, were left behind - the experts predicted that they would return to the National Championship, but the coaching staff had not yet begun to “demote” the medalists of the last season's Cup so much. echo $ _SERVER [‘REMOTE_ADDR’];

As a result, the team was formed almost like a hodgepodge of already familiar and completely new names - fans pin great hopes on the guys.

• Women - Irina Starykh, Evgenia Pavlova, Margarita Vasilieva, Ekaterina Yurlova-Perkht, Kristina Ilchenko, Valeria Vasnetsova and Ulyana Kaisheva.
• Men - Dmitry Malyshko, Alexander Loginov, Evgeny Garanichev, Alexey Slepov, Matvey Eliseev and Eduard Latypov.

As for the experts, they have different opinions on the desire of the coaching staff to update the team and refresh it a little with young people. Many are convinced that the World Cup is not the best stage when it would be worth experimenting with the composition of the team. But others insist that young people should immediately be thrown into the embrasure, because where else can they gain experience.
