The Sprint classic technique of the national championships that would have to be used to resolve the doubts about the quartet to be sent to Falun, has instead created new perplexity & agrave; Norwegian engineers.
Friday 30 January 2015 9 minutes reading time
Premise, the team sprint Norwegian, especially in classical technique, & egrave; a battleship practically invulnerable. This is demonstrated by the numbers: in the two tests in this format disputatesi in the World Cup, the subjects of King Harald got two wins (Eirik Brandsdal Kuusamo and Tomas Northug to Otep & auml; & auml;), two second places (Petter Northug in Kuusamo and Ola Vigen Hattestad to Otep & auml; & auml;) and third (Sondre Fossli Turvoll Kuusamo). They also reached the & rsquo; final act also P & aring; l Golberg and Finn H & aring; Jan Krogh, both winners in Sprint free technique.
It was among these seven names that & rsquo; head coach Arild Monsen sprinters would, theoretically, had to choose the quartet in view of the World Falun. L & rsquo; test result today of the national championships, which rules should have been used to dissolve the last doubts, has rather upset hierarchies.
Timo Andr & eacute; Bakken, the winner, did not seem to be out of luck, but having beaten & ndash; albeit aided by a good dose of luck & ndash; all the best compatriots, logically claim a place: & ldquo; I arrived 4 & deg; (In the Sprint of Falun of Scandinavian Cup, ed), 8 & deg ;, 9 & deg; and 1 & deg; in the four races that were used for the qualification, so I think I deserve a place for the World Cup & rdquo ;.
Sondre Fossli Turvoll, the runner-up, lost the chance & agrave; to play for the national title because of a contact with Tomas Northug in the final meters: & ldquo; I got a podium in the World Cup and are l & rsquo; only one to have reached the final in all Sprint classic technique. I know the competition & egrave; ruthless, but I hope to get the place that falls to me & rdquo ;. Fossli however tomorrow morning should leave for Almaty, where from Monday & Igrave; sar & agrave; engaged in the Under 23 World Championships, & ldquo; But I'm going to give up if you will come & ograve; convened for the World Falun & rdquo ;.
Try to clarify Vidar L & oslash; fshus, one of the coaches of the team: & ldquo; We will have to make a careful examination before drawing conclusions, many things have happened, and today & egrave; difficult to estimate hot. For this summonses, theoretically scheduled for Saturday afternoon, may be postponed for a few hours & rdquo ;. According to L & oslash; fshus there will be both brothers Northug: & ldquo; If we were to use common sense, there will be both. Tomas & egrave; in amazing condition, impressed us for two weekends in a row and now if he had not fallen probably would have won. Petter instead is preparing to perfection, as guaranteed by his trainer Stig Rune Kveen & rdquo ;. Despite today's victory, few chances for Bakken: & ldquo; No & egrave; never reached the final in a match of the World Cup. & Egrave; stupid to say that & egrave; definitely out, but will & agrave; difficult to see in Falun even if the & rsquo; last word in Monsen & rdquo ;.
Combining the words of L & oslash; fshus & Outdoors; outcome of the four races taken as a reference, & egrave; possible that the quartet is composed of Falun Norwegian Petter Northug, Tomas Northug, Eirik Brandsdal and Ola Vigen Hattestad. The brothers Northug weigh the words of & rsquo; coach, Brandsdal boasts the victory of Kuusamo as important business card while Hattestad, besides being the name pi & ugrave; emblazoned on the team (& egrave; l & rsquo; only long-distance runner in history with Tor Arne Hetland capable of winning Olympic gold, world gold cup and specialty & agrave;), boasts the second place of Otep & auml; & auml; and & ldquo; & rdquo excuse; the fall suffered today that he was unable to fight on par with its peers. Anyway Norway porter & agrave; four men on paper able to monopolize the podium test rainbow.
Less & ldquo; & rdquo ;, dramatic but still delicate situation in the women's field. With Marit Bj & oslash; rgen secure place as defending champion, Ingvild Flugstad & Ø StBerG and Maiken Caspersen Falla not seem to be questioned. The second place today raises instead quotes Karin Vikhagen Gjeitnes, which is played with Heidi Weng and Celine Brun-Lie one of the last two places: & ldquo; I would be disappointed if I leave out. Participate in a global & egrave; a dream growing for years; I did my time spetter & agrave; technicians make their decisions & rdquo; said Gjeitnes.
Even l & rsquo; Roar coach Hjelmeset confirms that the 30 year old not to Molde & egrave; cut out: & ldquo; S & Igrave gi ;, & agrave; early in the season when he was 2 ^ a Beitost & oslash; len has been shown to deserve a place. The podium today pu & ograve; worth as one of the World Cup, but we can also expect the & rsquo; & last race of Öland; stersund (scheduled February 14, four days before the test rainbow, ed) before taking the final decision & rdquo ;.
We just have to wait for technical Norwegians pull the sums and determine which will be the sprinters of the game of Falun.
