Qualification in Idre Fjäll: Näslund is untouchable

With two flawless runs, Sandra Näslund was the fastest of the day in both women's qualifying runs. The 26-year-old exceptional athlete literally drove away from her competitors on the 1,145 kilometer long course. The Swede, who already has four World Cup successes this season, completed the first qualifying run in 1.15,14:2 minutes and was almost XNUMX seconds faster than her first pursuer Daniela Maier from Germany.

In the second qualifying run, the 32-time World Cup winner went even further and stayed below the 1.14 mark. With the best time of 1.13,56:1.16,50, Näslund came out ahead of the Swiss Fanny Smith (XNUMX:XNUMX).

The Italian Jole Galli also showed her best side in Idre Fjäll. The 27-year-old from Livigno took eighth place in the first round, which she was even able to improve on in the second qualifying run. In the end, Galli took 5th place. Tight box for the gentlemen Reece Howden (1.10,79) was the fastest of the day in the men's qualifying run. The Canadian, who has already won twice in Idre, narrowly beat the Swede Erik Mobaerg and the Italian Simone Deromedis. How close is shown by the fact that the first 9 drivers are all only 1 second apart. Reece Howden was the fastest for the men on the day. © ANSA / Anders Wiklund
