Pellegrino excels in Davos

In the final, Pellegrino won ahead of Alexander Bolshunow from Russia (+2,13 seconds) and the British Andrew Young (+3,63). After the Aosta native had already impressed in second place in the qualifying, he dominated the knockout phase and was unbeatable in the final. Norway, led by Olympic champions Johannes Kläbo and Emil Iversen, was recently the first top nation to announce that it would skip the stages in Switzerland and next week in Dresden due to the corona pandemic. Shortly afterwards, Sweden and Finland also followed suit with cancellations (SportNews reported) . However, there was nothing to gain for Michael Hellweger from Sarner. As 42nd, he clearly missed qualifying for the quarter-finals of the top 30. Hellweger will no longer be taking part in the freestyle distance races on Sunday. In the women's race, the American Rosie Brennan secured victory ahead of Anamarija Lampic from Slovenia and the Russian Natalia Neprjajewa. Sprint World Cup in Davos, men Pos Name Country Time 1.
