COGNE (Dagbladet): A number of the guns asked at the start during the last race before the world CHAMPIONSHIPS in Seefeld. Most of the best Norwegian however, chose to sit out, but Didrik Tønseth went right up the hill to test the shape a short time before this year’s big event.
1500 metres above sea level competed he and the other norwegians against Dario Cologna, Sergey Ustjugov, Aleksandr Bolsjunov, Ivo Niskanen and the rest of the world class.
It is always especially with a rehearsal, it will be exciting. I hope to get on the podium, said the Prize to NRK before the first runners staked out from the start.
he was not in the vicinity of. After 15 heavy kilometers in height, ended Prize at the 18. space in the goal, almost two minutes behind the winner Bolsjunov.
Body is not really gone, and I am a little eager with the thought of diving conditions. Then I take completely the end, says Tønseth to the Newspaper.
Was broken
Bolsjunov went terrible quickly out from the start. The Russian led at all tidspasseringer from 2.2 km and beyond, and it was just Niskanen who managed to keep to reasonably follow.
– I lost too much time in the nedoverbakkene. I lost actually seven seconds per lap in the party, so I don’t know if the skis were a little too bad in the day. It is a difficult exercise to find the right smørning with, ” says Niskanen of the Newspaper.

But the finn lost time between each passage in the uphill also. Earlier in the day won her sister, Kerttu, the women’s 10-kilometer, but little brother was not able to follow up in the same style.
Nor Prize managed to even the score Bolsjunovs fierce pace, and lost ever time vis-à-vis the sovereign, the 22-year-old. At the finish he was one minute and 56 seconds behind the Russian.
” I am very happy that I was able to win today. It was difficult circumstances, so thank you to the support team, said Bolsjunov in a NRK-sent interview.
Hans Christer Holund is not taken out to 15 km in Seefeld, but ended nevertheless up in front of the Prize in Cogne. Also Martin Løwstrøm Nyenget impressed in Italy, and was best of the norwegians in height. He is not even taken out of the world cup squad.
– It went much too slowly, said a yet self-critical Holund after the race. About Bolsjunov he had the following to say.
– What to say? He is good, concluded he faced with NRK.
Løwstrøm Nyenget tried to hang on to Niskanen on his last round, and got just enough boost to that he was number seven. It is Løwstrøm Nyengets second best result in the world cup ever, after the fourth position at the same distance in Lahti in 2015.
I tried to take his back, and when I have a goal to hang on all the way. He paints so well on in the best parties its that it gets a little too rough, ” says Løwstrøm Nyenget to the Newspaper.
– It is brutal, but now I see where the list is located, so it’s only taking it on training, and knock.
