Strong! Vermeulen fifth in penultimate Tour race
Mika Vermeulen finished fifth in a spirited skiathlon (10 km classic/10 km skating) in the penultimate race of the Tour de Ski for cross-country skiers on Saturday.
Kronen Zeitung als bevorzugte Google-Quelle hinzufügen The 25-year-old Styrian was at the front of a large leading group in Val di Fiemme for a long time and led until around kilometer 19.4. In the end, however, the Norwegian Johannes Hösflot Kläbo took the win 2.4 seconds ahead of Federico Pellegrino (ITA). Vermeulen was 5.1 seconds off the pace and is now third overall.
Vermeulen is 2:29 minutes behind Kläbo, who celebrated his 91st World Cup victory, and is in third place ex aequo with the Norwegian Haavard Moseby. Erik Valnes (+2:18), another Norwegian, is in second place. The decision will be made on Sunday with the climb to Alpe Cermis. The women's race on Saturday with Teresa Stadlober starts at 15:30.
