The opening ceremony of the Beijing Olympics (China) will take place on Friday, February 4. France will not be represented for the ceremony, but do we have a good chance of winning medals? We find the journalist Josselin Debrauxduplex from Beijing.

“There is a wind of optimism blowing here in Beijing, because we could have a first medal, why not, this weekend with Perrine Laffont in ski bump”, says Josselin Debrauxduplex from Beijing (China). The French team has probably never been so strong on the biathlon side, carried by the athlete Emilian Jacquelin, Quentin Fillon Maillet and Anaïs Bescond.


The two French flag bearers, Tessa Worley and Kevin Rolland, are expected in ski bump “particularly vindictiveit’s kind of their last chance to win Olympic gold.”says the journalist. The objective is to beat the record of 15 French medals, a score established during the Games in 2014 in Sochi (Russia)equaled in 2018 in Pyongyang (North Korea).
