Kramer wins his tenth all-around title at Ritten

The Dutchman Sven Kramer prevailed in the all-around competition, winning European Championship gold for the tenth time with a lead of less than 0,10 points over his compatriot Patrick Roest. North Tyrol's Vanessa Herzog won the women's all-around sprint competition, setting a new outdoor record with 151,445 points. The Russian Daria Kachanova also set a new outdoor record, completing the 1000 meters in 1.15,21:XNUMX minutes.

Heart-stopping final for men The men's all-around competition was hard to beat in terms of excitement. The Dutchman Sven Kramer took the lead in the classification in the early afternoon thanks to his victory over 1500 meters. In the final 10.000 meter race, the four-time Olympic champion was comfortably in the lead. In the final laps, however, Kramer collapsed a little and in the end had to narrowly admit defeat to his compatriot Patrick Roest, who finished the 25 laps in the Rittner Eisring in 13.26,45:XNUMX minutes.

Nevertheless, in the fight for the all-around title, Sven Kramer narrowly prevailed with 150,103 to 150,199 points. The 32-year-old's outstanding career began in Ritten, as he won his very first European Championship gold in South Tyrol in 2007. 12 years later he secured European title number ten at the Arena Ritten. Silver went to Roest, while Norway's Sverre Lunde Pedersen won the bronze medal. An “Azzurro” also made it to the final: Trentino’s Andrea Giovannini finished the European Championships on Ritten in sixth place. Herzog wins European Championship gold In the women's four-way sprint, North Tyrolean Vanessa Herzog fended off all attempts at attack by her Russian competitors Daria Kachanova and Olga Fatkulina. The half-time leader from Austria remained only 500/37,62 of a second above the outdoor record that she had shattered the day before on the sensationally fast Rittner ice in the 1m in 100 seconds.

In the 1000m, Kachanova set a new outdoor record in 1.15,21:1.15,89 minutes, but Herzog countered with 151,445:23 and won European Championship gold in the sprint all-around for the first time in her career. With XNUMX points, the XNUMX-year-old Austrian also set a new outdoor record - it was the eighth overall during the continental speed skating championships on the South Tyrolean high plateau.
