Chanavat is very strong and he deserved the victory, he has been there for many years. cleverly, I am recovering the serenity to hit the target. Today if a couple of details fit together better, I could have reached the first place. Now I focus on the Tour de Ski, the Lenzerheide sprint will be my real goal, then we will see if there are the conditions to reach the sprint in Val di Fiemme on the penultimate day, I have recovered ground in the specialty classification and I want to play my cards for the final podium. "
