Czechia's male biathletes in Nové Město na Moravě finished in tenth place in the last relay of the 2024–25 Biathlon World Cup. After a promising start by Tomáš Mikyska, Vítězslav Hornig left the medal positions, and Jonáš Mareček and Michal Krčmář also had to go through a penalty lap.
The French men won for the fifth time in the Cup season, with Émilien Claude, Oscar Lombardot, Fabien Claude and Quentin Fillon Maillet securing gold at the Vysočina Arena. The Norwegian brothers Tarjei and Johannes Thingnes Bö won silver in the relay races, and they will soon conclude their careers after the remaining two rounds of the Biathlon World Cup in Pokljuka and Oslo. The French had only four corrections. The Ukrainian representatives won third place.
Czechia's female relay team, Jessica Jislová, Tereza Voborníková, Ilona Plecháčová and Lucie Charvátová, took eighth place in Nové Město. The finisher, Ms. Charvátová, had to go through two penalty laps after the last event. The Czechs were missing Markéta Davidová, who only completed Friday's sprint on the Nové Město tracks while currently undergoing treatment for a herniated disk. The final team race of the World Cup season was won by the reigning world champions, the French.
