Klæbo strikes back

Klæbo (39.51 minutes) left the Russians Sergey Ustiugov (+0,7 seconds) and Alexander Bolshunov (+1 second) behind in the final sprint. The best Azzurro on Friday was Giandomenico Salvadori (+40,6 seconds) in 19th place. Stefan Zelger from Bolzano (+1.40,5 minutes) also showed a decent race and ended up in 37th place.

With the victory, Klæbo was able to make up ground in the overall standings of the Tour de Ski. Bolshunov is still in the lead. But Klæbo was able to reduce his deficit to 18 seconds. Third is Ustiugov, 21 seconds behind his compatriot. The penultimate race of the Tour de Ski is a classic sprint on Saturday (11.25:XNUMX a.m.). The traditional finish on Sunday is the climb to Alpe Cermis.

Johaug beaten again There were a few surprises in the women's mass start over 10 km (classic): Norwegian Astrid Uhrenholdt Jacobsen took victory (29.07,9:6,2 minutes). The season dominator and tour leader Therese Johaug only finished fourth, 0,4 seconds behind. The Swede Ebba Andersson (1,0 seconds behind Jacobsen) and the German Katharina Hennig (XNUMX) ranked ahead of her. Hennig took her first World Cup podium.

For Jacobsen it was the first day's victory in five years; she also benefited from Johaug's fall. Johaug still holds the lead in the Tour de Ski, also because she stayed just ahead of her closest competitors Ingvild Flugstad Østberg (5th) and Natalya Nepryayeva (6th) on Friday.
