Vittozzi bronze in the individual 15 km at the Biathlon World Championships in Oberhof

Lisa Vittozzi conquers the bronze in the individual at the Biathlon World Championships on the snow in Oberhof. This is the second medal both for the Sappada carabiniere and for the entire blue expedition in the world championship underway in the German town, which arrived at the end of a heart race, after the blue itself had to give up on Sunday’s chase passed away due to the flu.

Vittozzi darted on skis and only missed the last of the 20 targets, which cost him a penalty minute and the most precious metal medal, but he still didn’t deny her an excellent bronze, the second world medal in the format after silver of 2019 in Oestersund: no blue had ever managed to repeat herself on the 15 km podium and for Lisa it is the seventh world champion in her career.

Swedish double with the triumph of Hanna Oeberg, who preceded her compatriot Linn Persson by 10″3 and Vittozzi by 28″. Fourth place and best race of her career for another blue, Samuela Comola, perfect at the shooting range (0 errors) and 48”5 behind the winner. Thirteenth, instead, Dorothea Wierer, detached by 3’25”1 from the less young of the Oeberg sisters, due to the 4 errors which cost her as many penalty minutes.
