Already after one kilometer, Sundling had taken the lead over Norway's Ragnhild Haga and Finland's Krista Pärmäkoski.

- I was a bit tagged on hunting and had told myself before that I would try to get into the ride and push on at the end.

I think I succeed well with that.

It's nice that I can take us to a third place, but it's a team effort, says Sundling according to Aftonbladet after the intense riot fight with Pärmäkoski.
