LIVE | How is the last men's relay race of the season going?

The last men's relay race of the season is being broadcast live from Kontiolahti, featuring 22 teams including Estonia's squad.

Today at 16:30, ETV and ERR's sports portal will broadcast live the last men's relay race of the season from the Biathlon World Cup event in Kontiolahti. The race features 22 teams, including Estonia's team with athletes Rene Zahkna, Kristo Siimer, Mark-Markos Kehva, and Mehis Udam among them. The commentators for the event are Ivar Lepik and Karel Kulbin.

Estonia started this season with an 11th place finish in Γ–stersund, improved to eighth place in both Hochfilzen and Oberhof, and achieved a season-best fifth place in Ruhpolding. However, during the Milan-Cortina Olympics, they faced disappointment securing only 13th place. The competition this season has been notably fierce, especially between the major powers Norway and France, with Norway winning the first three World Cup stages, while France claimed victory in the Ruhpolding stage and went on to win the Olympic gold in Milan-Cortina.

In this last relay, the battle for the podium appears to be fierce, with Sweden leading in past World Cup performances, having secured third place consistently throughout the season. Today's race not only highlights the competitive nature of international biathlon but also serves as a key moment for the Estonian team to end their season on a high note amidst strong competition from other top biathlon nations.
