Mario Seidl sets in the second race of Obestdorf of SGP

In the first evening of today, the German Grand Prix 2017 bracket ended with the second gundersen of the weekend at Oberstdorf. He was the leader of General Mario Seidl, always confirming the podium in all competitions so far disputed.

The Austrian has laid the foundation for success with a big leap, going to land over the HS at 140.5 m despite being off the bottom gate at the request of his coach. He started off with an advantage of 22 '' on Akito Watabe and stretched on the immediate pursuers since the first round, going to win the second summer 2017 success. Behind the Salzburger Land, the tandem formed by Fabian Rießle and Eric Frenzel, paired at 1'26 '', has handed out the athletes who preceded them, forming a group of six fighters for the podium. In the final they were the teutons to spit it, with Rießle 2 ° for just 2 tenths on Frenzel 3 °. Fourth place for Watabe, once again tops the top 3 without being able to get it. Kristian Ilves has come 5th, confirming the great impression already awakened in previous appearances, as well as Tomas Portyk 7th. After second place yesterday, Johannes Rydzek had to settle for the 9th of today, having left too far in the skiroll segment (2'22 '') and also being beaten at the photofinish by Takehiro Watanabe. The top 10 was closed by Vinzenz Geiger, author of the best skiroll time. SGP 2017's general classification thus sees Seidl (340) increasing its lead by bringing it to 50 lengths on Frenzel (290). Third Rießle at 276. The Summer Grand Prix will now see a break of more than a month, with the last two races scheduled for September 30 and October 1 at Planica. OBERSTDORF HS 140/10 Km 1.
