Sebastian Samuelsson posted a post on Instagram where he told about the duo's miss in the training track.

- It was on Tuesday that we were out and about to go classic.

We have had to stay on short distances all year, but now there were slightly longer tracks.

We went away, says the 24-year-old when he is asked about the debacle at today's press conference.

- We would be gone for two hours and it got dark.

It was quite late and we were going to turn around and go back, but somewhere we went wrong.

We do not know where we ended up.

When it started to get closer to two hours, we called for a ride.

"I felt 'Oh, no, Peppe'"

Johannes Lukas was in charge of the ride, and the coach had a certain foreboding when he saw that it was Peppe Femling who called.

- I can say that if Peppe Femling calls me, there is always something that has happened.

I felt "Oh, no, Peppe".

I was nearby, so that was fine.

They were not used to the Alps, everything looks pretty much the same, with high mountains all around, says Lukas.

- So I picked them up, they came back.

The World Cup in Hochfilzen starts with a sprint tomorrow, which will be broadcast on SVT1 and on SVT Play.
