The big star’s tough setback – just days before the big World Cup premiere

The biathlon world cup season starts in Östersund this weekend, but the question is whether Dorothea Wierer will start then.

The Italian star Dorothea Wierersecond overall in the World Cup last season, has a fever of 39 degrees.
“Good timing, as usual,” the 33-year-old writes ironically on Instagram.

Relays await on Saturday, both mixed and single mixed, before individual distance races are decided on Sunday. The premiere in Östersund then continues with competitions Wednesday to Sunday next week.
