Finally a gold for Petter!
After seeing the way Petter caught up to and passed the German team
yesterday, I'm feeling a lot more confident that he would have won the 15+15 as well, instead of Marcus Hellner, if Hellner hadn't accidentially skied over and broken his pole at that maximally critical time when both of them were catching up to the leader, Olsson. The real issue now is of course that the Norwegian classic skiers, where we used to have the top N (up to 8!) finishers in some world cup races, seems a lot weaker than in any previous year, so they simply might not be able to keep up with Sweden, Germany, Russia etc on the first two legs of the relay. With a biathlon skier on the third leg (either Hafsaas or Berger who have both won xc skate races) and Petter on the last leg, the only real question is if the other guys can put him into position for that final sprint. :-) Terje -- - Terje.Mathisen at tmsw.no "almost all programming can be viewed as an exercise in caching" |
