PRESENTATION - After a weekend marked by the good performances of the French biathletes, by McLaren’s victory in the F1 world constructors’ championship or by PSG’s new draw, find out what satisfied… and what dissatisfied the editorial staff of Le Figaro.
The French biathletes stood out brilliantly this weekend during the kontiolahti stage in Finland. Eric Perrot won the mass start ahead of his compatriot quentin Fillon Maillet while among the women Julia Simon came second. In Formula 1, Lando Norris’ victory in Abu dhabi secured the constructors’ title for McLaren. In rugby, Stade Toulousain, Union Bordeaux-Bègles, La Rochelle, Toulon, Clermont and Racing 92 successfully entered the European Cup while the French handball players qualified for the semi-finals of the European Championships by beating Sweden 31-27 on Sunday evening.
Paris and Sampaoli do not reassure
Among the disappointments of the weekend, PSG’s new draw at Auxerre (0-0) does not reassure before Luis Enrique’s men travel to Austria against Salzburg on Tuesday in the champions league. the dismissal of Rennes coach Jorge Sampaoli and Valtteri Bottas’ failed final Grand Prix were also among the weekend’s disappointments.
