Cross-country skiing World Cup in Trondheim: Kläbo shines, Germany cheers over bronze!

The Nordic World Ski Championship in Trondheim brought spectacular highlights and an unexpected drama. While the Norwegian Johannes Hösflot Kläbo as an outstanding star dominated the stage with six gold medals in six races, the German cross -country skiers also cheered. In a gripping finale, the DSV quartet secured the bronze medal at the relay race over 4 × 7.5 kilometers and delighted thousands of fans. Victoria Carl crowned the competition with a brilliant final sprint and left the Finnish competition behind. "We had great material today," explained Carl, highlighting the performance of the technology team. The Swedish season won gold, followed by Norway with silver, as the sports show reported.

After the victory of Kläbo, a scandal overshadowed the action: Norwegian jumping teams were disqualified because of manipulated suits, which led to a scandal. A secretly recorded video revealed the illegal practices, and several athletes, including the normal hill world champion Marius Lindvik, lost their medals. This led to an examination of the FIS, which will examine possible effects on further competitions. Despite the rainy weather and higher temperatures, a total of around 400,000 spectators were drawn to the competitions in the Granåsen Skienter.

Austria's Jan Hörl delivered a strong performance with two black and two team medals and hung up on the success of the Norwegians and Slovenes, while the Slovenian Prevc family won several titles. In particular, Nika Prevc remembered the first double world champion. The inclusion of para cross-country competitions was also highly praised, which gave the event a special touch. In the end, the athletes were not unaffected by their sporting competition - the whole World Cup was an impressive sports festival and was made unforgettable by the passionate support of the fans.
