Yup, Kälin was clearly the strongest. Form seldom lies.

Andersson would have given Karlsson a run for her money today. Kälin's form looks the most relaxed and efficient uphill IMHO from the chase group. Edit: Rucka-Michalek gonna catch the group.

I just dislike the traditionalist (competitive) skiing culture that continues to prevail in Fin. You know the drill: the elevation of classic, individual start races as something otherworldly, and the derived hyperbole about who really is the best. Demotion of speed, skills and skate. The...

Slind is the woman to beat, yes. Niskanen might be good as well, not that I want her (or the bro) to.

Karlsson out.

Doing what he can I suppose. Not much point trying to out-speed kläbo. I thought Niskanen was bluffing, but yeah, he was sick alright.

Kläbo should have participated in skimo. Always good to have options, he hasn't really delivered in these games yet.

Climbing is a shorthand for low crank inertia situations. Inertia affects the way power is generated during the pedal stroke and also the amplitude and distribution of peak forces etc. Evenepoel seems to really excel during high inertia scenarios such as fast flat time trials, but once in a...

Seventh according to wiki. The previous six are from way back. First woman though. As for Pellegrino's attack, he just took off like the old days. Very impressive. It was shown after the fact in Finnish TV at least.

Ryytty did so well that not even Joensuu could blow it. She was obviously overpowered by Sundling, but for a sprinter that was some sucking appallingly on the downhills.

Karlsson has brought Sweden to the battle for bronze

Let's see what Karlsson can do
