How to explain the galley season of our French biathletes?

After a totally crazy year 2022 for Quentin Fillon Maillet, five-time Olympic champion in Beijing and winner of the big crystal globe, this new season is for the moment very complicated for the French champion. Only fourth overall, and with only one individual podium since the start of the season, it’s nothing to say that QFM is in trouble.

And it’s not better, even much worse, for Emilien Jacquelin, who even had to go green in the middle of the season to mentally fix up and regain a taste for biathlon. Conversely, among girls, morale is high, especially on the side of Julia Simon, current leader of the general classification of the World Cup. How to explain these disparate forms? We discuss it in the latest issue of “Zone Mixte”, the favorite podcast of your favorite podcast.
