There will be more emphasis on biathlon and mountains in the future at Winter Studio.
But the idea is that Winter Studio still shows the full-length competitions in Davos and Dresden. Although they will not be Swedes, Norwegians or Finns at the starting line. Of course, this presupposes that the competitions are not canceled.
– The winter study will continue to show as usual. We will focus more on biathlon and alpine skiing, as neither of these competitions are canceled. We will also touch on the decision of the Swedish cross country team to cancel the World Cup competition until New Years. There will be some analytics around you at Vinterstudion, says Bobby Baksi, Vinterstudion project manager.
Is it in your agreement that Sweden should participate and compete?
– It is a broad and complicated agreement.
Will you demand financial compensation from the Swedish Ski Federation?
– Not what I know at the moment.

Daniel Fåhraeus, length director of the Swedish Ski Federation tells DN that they spoke with Fis (International Ski Federation) the day before the decision was made, to cancel Sweden’s participation in the World Cup for the remainder of 2020.
– We will not have to pay any penalty or similar costs, says Fåhraeus.
– The economic consequences are mainly linked to the reservation of travel and accommodation and there is a certain risk that this money will be lost. But not related to the organizers.
Can SVT demand compensation?
– I don’t think so, because competitions can be canceled due to cold and other reasons.
