The Olympic champion of Skiathlon Vancouver, back from a troubled autumn, seemed ready gi & agrave; the Ruka Triple, which however does not & egrave; was convened because & eacute; deemed not yet ready for an international tender. L & rsquo; debut seemed put off by a week, but on the eve of the trial of Lillehammer & egrave; was suffering from flu that put him back KO.
Davos seemed to finally be the scene of his debut season, so that his name was among those called home Sweden. Today & ograve; the team's head coach Rickard Grip explained that Hellner not garegger & agrave; even in the Grisons: & ldquo; Marcus & egrave; He returned to training, but not & egrave; yet ready for a 30 Km at 1500 meters above sea level. We cos & Igrave; mutually decided not to race, we think it is more the decision & ugrave; wise in the long run. We believe and we hope that Marcus can reach top form for the Tour de Ski, and to do that we can not run any risk & rdquo ;.
Therefore also the trip to Dobbiaco could not see him at the start: & ldquo; We will evaluate the situation day by day, the thing most & ugrave; important & egrave; Marcus heal completely from & rsquo; influence and can train without problems. At that point we will evaluate whether to launch World Cup & rdquo ;.
No problem for the two other injured players Halfvarsson and Nilsson: & ldquo; Calle and Stina will arrive in Davos late on Friday & Igrave ;, but participate only to Sprint on Sunday & rdquo ;.
