“It was the race in Toblach that destroyed the whole tour. I should have had a minute of advantage, but even with that margin it would have been difficult to win. Bolshunov rises uphill terribly fast. I knew that it would not be easy. I honestly made an attempt, but from the very beginning I knew that I had to find my speed, rise and lose as few seconds as possible, ”Klebo quotes NRK.

Klebo took third place. The victory was won by the Russian Alexander Bolshunov, and silver was won by his compatriot Sergei Ustyugov.

Earlier, Minister of Sports Pavel Kolobkov commented on the success of Russian skiers at the Tour de Ski.
