Competizione di pregevole livello nella sprint maschile degli Europei di Val Ridanna con molti atleti stabilmente presenti nel circuito di Coppa del Mondo e alcune seconde linee di buone speranze. La gara è stata vinta dal lettone Andrejs Rastorgujevs, uno dei migliori fondisti del biathlon ma anche parecchio instabile al poligono con molte occasioni buttate via in passato, che ha ottenuto il miglior tempo sugli sci e primeggiato nonostante un errore. Secondo posto per il discusso ex-dopato Alexander Loginov; il russo a differenza del vincitore ha commesso un errore a terra e terminato a soli 5"5. Bronzo per il bulgaro Krasimir Anev a 24"5 con una prestazione perfetta al poligono.

Buon comportamento degli azzurri Rudy Zini e Pietro Dutto per le loro possibilità attuali. Il primo ha completato una prestazione perfetta al tiro concludendo 32°, il secondo con un giro di penalità gli è arrivato attaccato in 33^ posizione. Più lontani Saverio Zini, Andreas Plaickner e Paolo Rodigari. Alle 14 la gara femminile.
