Franziska Preuss became the leader of the race after the first prone, and didn't let her rivals get close to her throughout the entire distance.
But the sprint winners have problems. Justine Braisaz repeated the "anti-feat" of Martin Uldal, shot 7 penalty loops, and fell to 12th place. Even Lampič shot better, although she finished one position lower than the Frenchwoman.
However, the Slovenian was aiming for the podium until the very end, and only missed three times in the final standing, which threw her far back.
Julia Simon finished second, and Vanessa Voigt came in third, thanks to perfect shooting.
Elvira Oberg made a great breakthrough, moving up from 32nd place to 6th, beating Finland's Lehtonen at the finish line.
