German triple victory
Automatically saved draft
The Austrian combined athletes also missed out on the podium in the second World Cup competition of the season. Thomas Rettenegger was the best ÖSV man in fifth place in a German triple victory in Ruka on Saturday. Johannes Lamparter did not make it into the top 40 after a botched jump with a high risk of falling. The former world champion had finished fifth in the first competition. Friday's winner Jarl Magnus Riiber (NOR) narrowly missed out on his 100th World Cup podium in fourth place.
Lamparter spun dangerously in tricky jumping conditions, but landed unscathed. "I'm not sure if it wasn't my own fault, but it wasn't easy conditions," said the Tyrolean. On Sunday, the overall World Cup winner from 2022/23 will get another chance in the mass start.
Thomas Rettenegger dropped out of the podium in the cross-country race from second place after the jumping. "I'm completely satisfied, it was really fun, even though it was so cold. But the German steam engine simply raced ahead today," said the man from Salzburg. His brother Stefan, last season's overall World Cup runner-up, made up one position in the 10 km cross-country race and finished seventh. The Germans triumphed across the board, led by the superior Johannes Rydzek. Julian Schmid and Vinzenz Geiger gave Riiber a run for his money in the final sprint.
