LILLEHAMMER (Dagbladet): The Norwegian cross country dominance in Lillehammer is total. Earlier today won the Norwegian girls triple victory at femkilometeren, while the guys came up wallpaper podium at twice the distance.
Martin Johnsrud Sundby won ahead Finn Haagen Krogh and Sjur Røthe but only Calle Halfvarsson split an even heavier Norwegian dominance. Niklas Dyrhaug and Chris Jespersen followed the next places.
A disappointed Swedish had only conclude that he stiffened in the last hill, but should have said to Swedish journalists that he is sure he beats Martin Johnsrud Sundby about pursuit tomorrow ends in a asked settlement.
It gets Sundby to pull smile.
– He gets well believe what he wants, Calle Halfvarsson. He talks a lot in big letters the boy, so we’ll see tomorrow. It can be exciting, says Martin.
– What do you mean ?, would a Swede know.
– Calle says all the time that he should turn the Norwegian and that he is so much better than the Norwegians, but so far he has not been the it, then. Then he must try to prove it, says Martin.
Getting the chance tomorrow
The first chance he gets in the morning when all the mini tour will be settled with a 15 km long pursuit Classic. Weather forecasts denote snowing, and then it can be difficult to walk in front.
After today race leader Finn Haagen Krogh mini tour standings, twenty seconds ahead Sundby, and 26 seconds ahead Pål Golberg. Behind them follow Sjur Rothe and Halfvarsson further one and two seconds behind Golberg.
Can be asked
About
snow really is falling in the morning it can certainly become a mass sprint that determines tour. Finn Haagen Krogh think at least not he manages to keep away for those coming behind, no matter what the weather is.
– No, I think not, so I’m going to start quietly and see how I feel, says Krogh.
Martin Johnsrud Sundby will preferably avoid a mass sprint. Although he has devoted numerous extra hours of sprint training this season, is still not spurt his strongest card.
Yet he envisions that he must use asked its properties tomorrow.
– I imagine that there will be insane drive up the last hill, with many stiff legged down the last hill, and then it becomes a form of settlement asked. It is so difficult to assess with the weather, because suddenly we have 25 man tomorrow if it is not possible to go there first. Then it becomes the one asked settlement the last hundred meters, but I say yes thanks to it I also, I can train on it even now, says Sundby Dagbladet.
