Tour de Ski: Sundby cannot be stopped – things are not going well in South Tyrol

Him again and again: Martin Johnsrud Sundby was also successful in the second of three races in the Tour de Ski and, with a lead of one and a half minutes in the overall ranking, will probably be difficult to catch up with. In the pursuit, Sundby left no stone unturned and relegated his two Norwegian compatriots Petter Northug and Finn Haagen Krogh to places 2 and 3 with an increase of over a minute. Roland Clara from Reischach completed the race in 43rd place, Dietmar Nöckler from Bruneck However, he didn't get past 61st place - so far it's definitely not the South Tyroleans' tour. Not even with the women. Debora Agreiter from Gadertal, who started the pursuit in 39th place, lost a lot of ground over the course of the race and had to settle for 43rd place in the end. The duel at the front was unbeatable in terms of tension: The Norwegian Therese Johaug fought a real battle over five kilometers with her compatriot Ingvild Flugstad Oestberg, in which Oestberg was able to prevail on the very last stretch of the route and, in addition to the victory, also took the lead the Tour de Ski secured.

Monday is a rest day – the Dobbiaco stage is approaching After three strenuous races in a row, the cross-country skiers are now being given a day's break. On Monday the entourage moves to Oberstdorf (Germany). There are two races taking place there: On Tuesday the athletes take part in a sprint in the classic style, and on Wednesday they get down to business in a mass start, also with classic technique. The highlight from a South Tyrolean perspective is and remains the stage on January 8th: then the Tour de Ski stops in Toblach.
