Alexander Bolshunov finished second in the sprint and played the massive start at home. On Sunday, he followed up with another victory. The star could easily maintain the distance with which it came out at the beginning of the hunt.
– It’s so impressive in so many different ways SVT expert Anders Blomquist.
– He is an expert in every way.
The result means that you continue to lead the Ski Tour and win the first part of the tour. Behind him were Artem Maltsev and Maurice Manificat second and third respectively.
Halfvarsson Street Best Swedish
So for the Swedish part? Oskar Svensson finished tenth in the opening sprint and finished sixth in the 15-kilometer classic on Saturday, his best result in a distance race. At the beginning of the hunt, Svensson came third. But he quickly lost positions.
The best Swede was instead Calle Halfvarsson in fifteenth place who had climbed eight places. But despite the progress, he had expected more.
– I would have gone even faster if I had had better things, says Halfvarsson, who thinks it was a mistake to make too strong a grip.
– We do not have the ride that is needed, we are a small step behind. I do a very good second lap and I get away from my group and try to catch up with the group in front. But I do not get anything, the backs are catching up right away. He gets a little snobbish when it doesn’t work downhill, he says.
Poromaa: “I’m pissed off”
Just behind Halfvarsson, William Poromaa finished 28th during today’s stage. But once at the finish, the 21-year-old was disappointed to find that he had only improved three places.
– I’m pissed off. Everything feels useless, I don’t get what I have in my body. I think I fight uphill but I never do it again, so it’s boring to ski, says Poromaa.
He agrees with Halfvarsson that it was a wall error.
– I don’t think I had the best under my feet today, so I have to go over with the levees what could have gone wrong. We tested the skis as usual and developed what we thought was best for us. But today is not fun to ski, says William Poromaa.
