The second day at the European Biathlon Championship was not as extreme as the first one. The thaw was replaced by a light frost. Foreign guests highly appreciate the preparedness of Belarusians in difficult climatic conditions. By the way, further weather forecasters predict more favorable weather, which means that Belarusians can count on real sport festival.

Among the guests of the European Championship there are many foreign ones. Although biathlon is considered a television sport, there is a crowd of fans in the stands and along the route.

In the super-mixed double Belarusians Kruchinkina and Chepelin closed the top ten. There were no Belarusians on the pedestal of the mixed relay. It seems that the real chances for the next medal remain only in personal races, and they are connected with Irina Krivko.

The Vice-President of the International Biathlon Federation is sure: Saturday and Sunday in Raubichi will be even brighter. And the atmosphere corresponds to more significant starts. Tomorrow is the day of rest at the championship.
