Samuelsson lost eleven seconds on the sprint lap to the Frenchman who finally got to climb to the top

The world champion from Pokljuka, Martin Ponsiluoma, had a boom lying around and shook his head when he went to the finish.

- It is much better than last weekend and it was stable in shooting.

I am happy with the ride and I think that who rode in the beginning had a little advantage.

It was pretty loose for us who went later, says Ponsiluoma to SVT Sport.

- He does not really have the form of riding we have seen in some competitions this winter. With the result in hand, those who went earlier had the advantage of harder tracks. That snowfall that was expected never came, says SVT Sports expert Helena Ekholm.
