The capoallenatore Uwe Müßiggang said that the decision was taken in consultation with the athletes, whose physical condition is far from being optimal, and it was decided to give them a week off before the final leg of Holmenkollen.
Germany will fly to Finland with only four women as compared to Pokljuka will add Nadine Horchler. Müßiggang further explained that even Kathrin Hitzer-Lang was supposed to be the game of Kontiolahti, but had to withdraw due to an injury to the tendons.
One wonders whether it is really so, or if it is a "political illness" as Hitzer only a few days ago had openly criticized the German technical staff by defining "cowards" coaches and advancing doubts about the effectiveness of the choices made for the maximum circuit.
In the men there will be Christoph Stephan, struck down by an illness. Furthermore, compared to Pokljuka will return to the World Cup Erik Lesser, who was absent due to flu. Johannes Kühn will be to leave the place'' s Olympic silver.
