Sunday 1 March 2015 28 minutes reading time
Two wins perhaps predictable, given the respective states of the form & ndash; nothing short of sensational & ndash; shown by the US (for her 2015 & egrave; was almost perfect) and Russian, at the top of the speed & agrave; right from & rsquo; start of the 2014-2015 season.
On the overall podium rise & ndash; regarding women & ndash; Also Heather Richardson and Karolina Erbanov & aacute; (Czech Republic), the first podium finish in the Championships. Male, however, returning from Kazakhstan with medal & rsquo; silver and bronze & ldquo; General & rdquo; l & rsquo; Dutch Hein Otterspeer & ndash; gi & agrave; bronze in 2013 - and the Russian Aleksey Yesin, Quest & rsquo; last to first medal in a World Cup Sprint.
L & rsquo; 2015 edition also gives some pills very interesting statistics. Two American skaters came not up simultaneously on a podium general since 1980. Then the shotgun & ldquo; & ograve touched; & rdquo; Leah Poulus and Beth Heiden, silver and bronze behind the German & ndash; that ran under the banner of East Germany & ndash; Karin Enke. In addition, the Bowe is an exceptional winning poker & ndash; won both doubles series of 500 and 1000 meters - that was not the case from & rsquo; 2003 edition, when the German Monique Garbrecht-Enfeldt won all four tests of the program. Celebrate the lightning of & rsquo; east Kulizhnikov Pavel, 21 years to be made in April, which brings Russia to victory after 18 years. L & rsquo; last to hit the & rsquo; gold was Sergej Klev & # 269; Enja, champion in 1997 in Hamar.
The World Three blue led by engineer Giorgio Baroni ends with a slight decrease compared to the good opening day. Not reach new records seasonal homemade Italian & ndash; yesterday were three, equally divided between all the skaters of our house & ndash; but the improvements are not lacking. These are the final placings of the patrol blue: Mirko Giacomo Nenzi ends in twelfth place overall, failing to improve his best obtained a year ago in Nagano, when it was 11th. Same fate for David Bosa, twenty-first in the final standings in Astana, which gives a position with respect to the World Cup 2014. It improves significantly Yvonne Daldossi. The sprinter Lana (Bolzano) passes from the 23rd to the 21th square Nagano place finish in this two-day World Championship.
Here are the details of what happened in the final Sunday of racing.
After the success absolutely convincing in the first round of the 500 meters, Brittany Bowe has therefore replicated in the test on Sunday. The US seals right now the lead in the overall standings, triumphing in 37 & rsquo; & rsquo; 71, chrono slightly more & ugrave; slow & ndash; 12 cents in pi & ugrave; compared to & rsquo; exceptional test 24 hours before. The 27 year-old Florida beats & ndash; as gi & agrave; occurred yesterday & ndash; compatriot Heather Richardson (second in the final ranking) in & rsquo; last of 16 batteries total. The time of Bowe & egrave; pi & ugrave; Quick 19 cents, compared to 37 & rsquo; & rsquo; 90 of the teammate. The Richardson compares to equal up to -100 from & rsquo; arrival, only to succumb to fatigue even in the final straight.
Third, cos & Igrave; as in the first series of 500, & egrave; the Czech Karolina Erbanov & aacute ;, author of a time trial & ndash; 38 & rsquo; & rsquo; 06 - broadly similar to that of Saturday. Fourth Kazakh Yekaterina Aydova to 13 cents in the third place, good to leave behind, in & rsquo; order, the specialists of the short distance Thijsje Oenema, Judith Hesse and Olga Fatkulina.
Yvonne Daldossi, fresh from 39 & rsquo; & rsquo; 48 yesterday, had the intention to improve the performance chronometric & ndash; and consequently the placement, also a function of the overall standings & ndash; obtained on Saturday afternoon. The 23 year-old South Tyrolean succeeds in & rsquo; objective and closes on the 17th place: & egrave; his best result on a single distance in a World Cup Sprint. Engaged in outside lane against Canadian McLean, is a good test taking well in 10 & rsquo; & rsquo; 68 to 100 meters. The encouraging start to close the door in 38 & rsquo; & rsquo; 99. For the skater of Forestry is the third best performance chronometric seasonal & ndash; the first & egrave; 38 & rsquo; & rsquo; 83 obtained at the World Single Distances on Heerenveen - but & egrave; also one of the best times, from top 10 staff, obtained in career. The stopwatch and cents are not cos & Igrave; benevolent all & rsquo; blue, since & eacute; before her & ndash; with 38 & rsquo; & rsquo; 98 - are placed three athletes, all with the same time.
Over the next 1,000 meters (second series), the usual duel between Brittany Bowe and Heather Richardson & ndash; always in the final battery & ndash; rewards the first, you take cos & Igrave; a prestigious poker record after the three previous wins. The lap time of 1 & rsquo; 14 & rsquo; & rsquo; 50 & egrave; still fast compared to & rsquo; 1 & rsquo; 15 & rsquo; & rsquo; 06 of Richardson & ndash; fourth silver for her & ndash; that lets you lock on parade the US and especially the new world champion on shorter distances. L & rsquo; rainbow & egrave; pi & ugrave; & Ldquo; slow & rdquo; 40 cents compared to the previous victory on kilometer. Celebrate cos & Igrave; his first ever gold in the competition after two investments in which He found & ograve; eighth and eighteenth place in 2013 and 2012.
Besides the two dominating US, you square on the podium at his last opportunity & agrave; Cup leader on the 1000 & ndash; also because of the & rsquo; absence of the formidable American in the early stages of the World Cup - the Chinese Quishi Li, who won the challenge given to the & ldquo; the rest of the world & rdquo; in one & rsquo; 15 & rsquo; & rsquo; 85. The unfortunate bearer of Kazakhstan Yekaterina Aydova, fourth again & ndash; had already & agrave; happened yesterday in 1000 and now also on 500 & ndash; to 16 cents from the Chinese. In addition, the darling of the house dates back in the standings, but you have to stop once again in fourth place. A real cancellation for young & ndash; Class 1991 - Kazakh.
The challenge - - the decisive moment in these seconds 1000 meters - all for the third step of the podium & ldquo; overall & rdquo; was all between Karolina Erbanov & aacute; and Olga Fatkulina. It concludes in favor of the Czech on the eve of the 1000 had to defend three tenths of a point of accumulated against & rsquo; athlete silver at the Olympics in Sochi in the 500 meters. Mission accomplished for the Czech. In the ranking on the distance will be respectively fifth and eighth.
The first battery of 1,000 meters, for & ograve ;, had seen immediately l & rsquo; blue star with Yvonne Daldossi. Ksenia Sadovskaya combined all & rsquo; blue in the second World Series. Game in 18 & rsquo; & rsquo; 35 to 200 meters, l & rsquo; Italian slowed in the closing of the last two rounds of 29 & rsquo; & rsquo; 6:32 & rsquo; & rsquo; 8. 1 & rsquo; 20 & rsquo; & rsquo; 84 the total time for Yvonne who loses fluidity & agrave; d & rsquo; action in the last meters and 40 cents worse time & ndash; primacy seasonal & ndash; touched yesterday. It is square in 23rd position, just behind the penultimate Belarusian.
In the men, captures the two successes on distances today Pavel Kulizhnikov. The Russian does not stop some of his favorite distance: 500 meters. The Cup leader, arrived in mid & agrave; the competition with a good lead in the overall standings, shall immediately secure the speech title triumphing again on the 500 meters. Again its spectacular race, won with disarming ease & agrave; in 34 & rsquo; & rsquo; 68. Standards, although it has slightly worsened in comparison with the winning time of the first set, they remain very high: 34 & rsquo; & rsquo; 68. This season only Canadians & ndash; but on fast ring Olympic Calgary - Dubreuil and Junio ​​have been able to skate pi & ugrave; quickly.
Behind the leader of the Grand World Cup and new world champion sprint had placed Otterspeer Hein & ndash; excellent interpreter of Kazakhstan in 1000 & ndash; and the 31 year old Finn Mika Poutala, the first podium of relief in his career after five seasons of fasting. For both c & rsquo; & egrave; l & rsquo; silver ex aequo with 35 & rsquo; & rsquo; 03 at the finish line. The first skater off the podium on the distance & egrave; Russian Ruslan Murashow (35 & rsquo; & rsquo; 06), followed by a disappointing Olympic champion Michel Mulder, fifth in the 35 & rsquo; & rsquo; 11 after the brilliant silver on Saturday. Of note l & rsquo; leaving the scene of German Nico Ihle, disqualified and out of the rankings after an excellent first day he finished third provisional.
The second set of 500 male & egrave; was also influenced by the stop due to the collision between the Chinese Fan Yang, slipped into the inside lane, that & egrave; went to hit the & rsquo; innocent Kazakh Aleksandar Zhigin.
The blues are better than 500 on Saturday. & Egrave; bravo David Bosa terminating his test in 35 & rsquo; & rsquo; 66. Ed & egrave; able to match the lap time obtained yesterday in the inside lane, which represented gi & agrave; its primacy season. The Trentino is crazy in twenty-second position.

The Venetian, fresh from 35 & rsquo; & rsquo; 38 Saturday, does better by closing the ride and 100 meter race in 35 & rsquo; & rsquo; 34. For the 25 year old Venetian good 9 & rsquo; & rsquo; 93 at the start and closing convincing in 25 & rsquo; & rsquo; 4 lap: sar & agrave; tenth. For l & rsquo; blue is the fourth best performance in timekeeping season.
The final 1000 meters are a parade for Kulizhnikov, gi & agrave; almost certain of & rsquo; iris & ldquo; in a safe & rdquo ;, d & agrave; l & rsquo; last demonstration in his fourth and latest effort, finding the third world success. Nell & rsquo; last battery comes cos & Igrave; l & rsquo; yet another gem of the new world champion, that & ldquo; & rdquo revenge; cos & Igrave; the knockout on Saturday. The challenge Kulizhnikov-Otterspeer be the prerogative of the Russian one & rsquo; 09 & rsquo; & rsquo; 06. L & rsquo; Dutch shut & agrave; in one & rsquo; 09 & rsquo; & rsquo; 52 (fourth set), but the trial will & agrave; enough to guarantee him the & rsquo; silver in the overall standings.

The two blue improve placements compared to the first set while not trying precision timekeeping pi & ugrave; rapids. David Bosa, this time engaged in the outside lane & egrave; twenty-second. Cos & Igrave; his race: 26 & rsquo; & rsquo; 1 on the first lap and 28 & rsquo; & rsquo; 8 to the second round, not perfect. Closes in 1 & rsquo; 11 & rsquo; & rsquo; 81 his race less competitive & ndash; in the first 1000 meters had found a great one & rsquo; 11 & rsquo; & rsquo; 63 - a World course still good.
