Johan-Olav Botn, just like Endre Strömsheim last year, rolls all his competitors into the snow and knocks on the doors of the main team, but alas, he can only get a place if two of the main seven get sick. Yes, the Norwegians already have a headache, they need to throw one great athlete out of the team. So we'll likely see Botn to Canmore, despite his 1-1-1-2-1-1-2-3 line podiums.
18-year-old German Julia Tannheimer won the mass start in Sjosjoen. And it's not a big sensation, before that, she finished in the top 10 four times this season. And there is someone to replace her with, for example, instead of Sophie Schneider.
Stina Nilsson, after being relegated to a lower division, was initially shocked with her 40th places finish at the IBU Cup, but in Sjosjoen she managed to pull herself together and even take 3rd place, with poor shooting. Well, at least she has pace.
Ida Lien, who missed the beginning of the season, entered quite well - in the sprint she was far away, 16th, but in the pursuit and mass start she was in the top 3 twice. In January we can see her in the main team.
