Stoch wins qualifying in Trondheim - fifth on Friday

Trondheim (SID) Olympic champion Kamil Stoch has won the qualification for the Ski Jumping World Cup in Trondheim. The Pole, who has been dominating for weeks, flew at 140,0 m and further extended his clear lead in the overall ranking of the "Raw Air" series. Second place went to the Norwegian Andreas Stjernen, who reached 141,5 m with a longer attempt. As the best German, Richard Freitag took fifth place and raised hopes for the competition on Thursday (17.00 p.m./ARD and Eurosport), Andreas Wellinger (Ruhpolding) came sixth. Karl Geiger (Oberstdorf/13th), Markus Eisenbichler (Siegsdorf/19th), Stephan Leyhe (Willingen/21st), Andreas Wank (Hinterzarten/22nd) and David Siegel (Baiersbronn/29th) also made it through qualification without any problems. In the overall “Raw Air” ranking, after nine of 16 jumps, Stoch is clearly ahead of the Norwegians Robert Johansson (1296,9), Stjernen (1226,7) and Johann Andre Forfang (1206,6) with 1191,6 points. Freitag (1167,8) and Wellinger (1148,4) remain in eighth and ninth place. However, two prominent names are not there on Thursday: Both World Cup record winner Gregor Schlierenzauer (Austria) and five-time World Cup winner Roman Koudelka (Czech Republic) did not make it into the top 50. The Norway tour ends at the “Monsterbakken” in Vikersund this weekend. The winner receives a bonus of 60.000 euros.
