2015–16 Biathlon World Cup – Relay Men

None January 2017 The 2015–16 Biathlon World Cup – Relay Men started on Sunday November 29, 2015 in Hochfilzen and will finish on March 12, 2016 at the Biathlon World Championships 2016 in Oslo. Competition format The relay teams consist of four biathletes. Every athlete leg skied over three laps of 2.5 km, with two shooting rounds; one prone, one standing. For every round of five targets there are eight bullets available, though the last three can only be single-loaded manually one at a time from spare round holders or bullets deposited by the competitor into trays or onto the mat at the firing line. If after eight bullets there are still misses, one 150 m penalty loop must be taken for each missed target remaining. The first-leg participants start all at the same time, and as in cross-country skiing relays, every athlete of a team must touch the team's next-leg participant to perform a valid changeover. On the first shooting stage of the first leg, the participant must shoot in the lane corresponding to their bib number (Bib #10 shoots at lane #10 regardless of position in race.), then for the remainder of the relay, the relay team shoots at the lane in the position they arrived (Arrive at the range in 5th place, you shoot at lane five.). 2014–15 Top 3 Standings MedalAthletePointsGold: 311Silver: 308Bronze: 305 Medal winners Event: Gold: Time Silver: Time Bronze: TimeHochfilzendetailsAlexey VolkovEvgeniy GaranichevDmitry MalyshkoAnton Shipulin 1:11:40.8(0+0) (0+1)(0+0) (0+0)(0+2) (0+1)(0+0) (0+2)Henrik L'Abée-LundJohannes Thingnes BøTarjei BøEmil Hegle Svendsen 1:11:43.9(0+0) (0+2)(0+0) (0+2)(0+0) (0+1)(0+0) (0+2)Simon FourcadeQuentin Fillon MailletSimon DesthieuxMartin Fourcade 1:12:42.7(0+1) (0+0)(0+0) (0+3)(0+0) (0+1)(0+1) (0+0)RuhpoldingdetailsOle Einar BjørndalenJohannes Thingnes BøTarjei BøEmil Hegle Svendsen 1:17:05.0(0+3) (0+2)(0+0) (0+0)(0+3) (0+1)(0+1) (0+2)Alexey VolkovEvgeniy GaranichevMaxim TsvetkovAnton Shipulin 1:17:19.6(0+0) (0+1)(0+0) (0+2)(0+1) (0+2)(0+0) (0+0)Sven GrosseggerJulian EberhardSimon EderDominik Landertinger 1:17:40.8(0+0) (0+2)(1+3) (0+0)(0+0) (0+0)(0+0) (0+2)Antholz-AnterselvadetailsMaxim TsvetkovEvgeniy GaranichevDmitry MalyshkoAnton Shipulin 1:12:42.8(0+1) (0+1)(0+0) (0+1)(0+3) (0+0)(0+1) (0+0)Erik LesserBenedikt DollArnd PeifferSimon Schempp 1:12:43.8(0+0) (0+0)(0+0) (1+3)(0+1) (0+0)(0+0) (0+0)Ole Einar BjørndalenLars Helge BirkelandJohannes Thingnes BøErlend Bjøntegaard 1:13:05.7(0+2) (0+1)(0+0) (0+0)(0+0) (0+0)(0+2) (0+2)Presque IsledetailsLars Helge BirkelandErlend BjøntegaardJohannes Thingnes BøTarjei Bø 1:12:09.8(0+3) (0+0)(0+0) (0+0)(0+2) (0+1)(0+0) (0+1)Simon FourcadeQuentin Fillon MailletSimon DesthieuxJean-Guillaume Béatrix 1:12:39.9(0+0) (0+1)(0+1) (0+0)(0+0) (0+0)(0+0) (0+0)Erik LesserAndreas BirnbacherDaniel BöhmBenedikt Doll 1:12:52.4(0+0) (0+0)(0+3) (0+2)(0+3) (0+1)(0+1) (0+1)World Championshipsdetails Ole Einar BjørndalenTarjei BøJohannes Thingnes BøEmil Hegle Svendsen 1:13:16.8(0+0) (0+2)(0+1) (0+1)(0+0) (0+0)(0+0) (0+2) Erik LesserBenedikt DollArnd PeifferSimon Schempp 1:13:28.3(0+0) (0+0)(0+1) (0+1)(0+1) (0+1)(0+0) (0+1) Christian GowNathan SmithScott GowBrendan Green 1:13:40.2(0+0) (0+0)(0+1) (0+1)(0+0) (0+3)(0+0) (0+0) Standings # Name HOC RUH ANT PRE WCH TotalRelay 1. 54 60 48 60 60 282 2 60 54 60 43 38 255 3 40 40 54 48 54 236 4 48 43 40 54 32 217 5 43 48 43 32 43 209 6 34 38 38 40 34 184 7 38 31 30 26 48 173 8 31 36 25 38 30 160 9 32 29 29 36 25 151 10 30 30 32 28 31 151 11 26 26 36 29 29 146 12 29 32 26 30 28 145 13 28 23 28 34 26 139 14 25 34 34 — 40 133 15 27 24 23 31 21 126 16 36 28 24 DNS 36 124 17 22 22 21 27 23 115 18 23 27 31 — 27 108 19 24 25 27 — 24 100 20 18 21 22 — 22 83 21 16 20 20 — 18 74 22 14 17 17 25 — 73 23 20 16 18 — 19 73 24 19 19 18 — 16 72 25 21 18 — — 20 59 26 15 — 16 — — 31 27 17 — — — — 17 27 — — — — 17 17 References External links IBU Website IBU Datacenter Relay
