2009–10 Biathlon World Cup – Mass start Men

None The 2009–10 Biathlon World Cup – Mass start Men started on Sunday, January 10, 2010, in Oberhof and finished on Saturday, March 27, 2010, in Khanty-Mansiysk. Defending titlist was Dominik Landertinger of Austria. Competition format In the mass start, all biathletes start at the same time and the first across the finish line wins. In this 15.0 km mi competition, the distance is skied over five laps; there are four bouts of shooting (two prone, two standing, in that order) with the first shooting bout being at the lane corresponding to your bib (Bib #10 shoots at lane #10 regardless of position in race.) with rest of the shooting bouts being at the lane in the position they arrived (Arrive at the lane in fifth place, you shoot at lane five.). As in sprint races, competitors must ski one 150 m penalty loop for each miss. Here again, to avoid unwanted congestion, World Cup Mass starts are held with only the 30 top ranking athletes on the start line (half that of the Pursuit as here all contestants start simultaneously). 2008–09 Top 3 Standings MedalAthletePointshttp://data.biathlonworld.com/data/archives.aspx?CupId=BT0809SWRLCP__SMMS 2008/09 Final standings 2010-01-10 https://web.archive.org/web/20120306111138/http://data.biathlonworld.com/data/archives.aspx?CupId=BT0809SWRLCP__SMMS 2012-03-06 dead Gold:AUT Dominik Landertinger208Silver:NOR Ole Einar Bjørndalen199Bronze:AUT Christoph Sumann197 Medal winners Event: Gold: Time Silver: Time Bronze: TimeOberhofdetailsOle Einar Bjørndalen 38:57.3(0+1+0+0)Tim Burke 40:00.2(0+1+1+0)Tomasz Sikora 40:37.9(0+0+1+2)RuhpoldingdetailsEmil Hegle Svendsen 39:19.5(0+0+0+0)Evgeny Ustyugov 39:24.6(0+0+0+1)Simon Eder 39:29.4(0+0+1+0)2010 Winter OlympicsdetailsEvgeny Ustyugov 35:35.7(0+0+0+0)Martin Fourcade 35:46.2(2+0+0+1)Pavol Hurajt 35:52.3(0+0+0+0)OslodetailsIvan Tcherezov 40:10.1(0+0+0+0)Christoph Sumann 40:36.4(2+0+0+1)Emil Hegle Svendsen 40:44.7(0+1+0+1)Khanty-MansiyskdetailsDominik Landertinger 38:19.8(1+0+0+0)Arnd Peiffer 38:23.4(0+0+0+0)Halvard Hanevold 38:31.0(0+0+0+0) Standings # Name OBE RUH OLY OSL KHA TotalStandings Mass start women 1 Evgeny Ustyugov RUS 43 54 60 40 13 197 2 Emil Hegle Svendsen NOR 18 60 28 48 27 163 3 Arnd Peiffer GER 40 43 24 14 54 161 4 Christoph Sumann AUT 27 36 43 54 18 160 5 Dominik Landertinger AUT 25 34 36 27 60 157 6 Ivan Tcherezov RUS 24 24 38 60 32 154 7 Ole Einar Bjørndalen NOR 60 38 14 28 26 152 8 Martin Fourcade FRA 20 40 54 20 38 152 9 Simon Fourcade FRA 36 27 27 38 40 141 10 Simon Eder AUT 23 48 16 23 43 137 11 Halvard Hanevold NOR 31 20 22 32 48 133 12 Vincent Jay FRA 19 30 34 36 31 131 13 Daniel Mesotitsch AUT 15 28 40 30 30 128 14 Tim Burke USA 54 22 23 18 25 124 15 Andreas Birnbacher GER 14 31 26 43 23 123 16 Alexander Os NOR 38 32 – 29 20 119 17 Maxim Tchoudov RUS 29 25 – 34 24 112 18 Michael Greis GER 30 21 31 16 29 111 19 Tomasz Sikora POL 48 – 30 24 – 102 20 Andriy Deryzemlya UKR 17 – 15 31 34 97 21 Björn Ferry SWE – 23 29 25 15 92 22 Anton Shipulin RUS 28 29 19 13 – 89 23 Pavol Hurajt SVK – – 48 12 28 88 24 Klemen Bauer SLO 26 12 13 26 22 87 25 Carl Johan Bergman SWE 13 26 – 22 11 72 26 Jean-Philippe Leguellec CAN 22 19 11 17 14 72 27 Michal Šlesingr CZE – – 25 21 21 67 28 Sergey Novikov BLR 16 14 21 15 12 66 29 Serguei Sednev UKR 11 – 20 11 19 61 30 Christoph Stephan GER – – 18 19 17 54 31 Nikolay Kruglov RUS 34 13 – – – 47 32 Friedrich Pinter AUT 12 18 – – 16 46 33 Victor Vasilyev RUS 21 17 – – – 38 34 Christian De Lorenzi ITA – – – – 36 36 35 Jakov Fak CRO – – 32 – – 32 36 Lars Berger NOR 32 – – – – 32 37 Thomas Frei SUI – – 17 – – 17 38 Fredrik Lindström SWE – 16 – – – 16 39 Jaroslav Soukup CZE – 15 – – – 15 40 Jeremy Teela USA – – 12 – – 12 41 Tarjei Bø NOR – 11 – – – 11 References - Mass Start Men, 2009-10 Biathlon World Cup
