After a huge scandal in the French national team, when Julia Simon was sued for fraud, she decided not to train with her teammates, and take the individual training, sometimes intersecting with representatives of other teams, and even participated in the Martin Fourcade festival.
On Monday she returned to the French national team, which came to the pre-final preparatory training camp in Premanon. The saga with scandalous accusations has not yet ended, but Simon has at least begun to justify herself, explaining that she herself is a victim, and it was not she who cheated with credit cards.
About the preparation process itself
Unlike the men, the women's group can use Jura's hypoxic chambers, which reproduce high altitude conditions. «Most of the girls will be there, especially those who showed themselves very well at the first altitude training camp», says their coach.
The roster of French women's team has not changed compared to the previous year: Gilonne Guigonnat, Sophie Chauveau, Lou Jeanmonnot, Karoline Colombo, Paula Botet, Julia Simon, Chloe Chevalier, Justine Braisaz-Bouchet.
