The Nordic World Ski Championships in Trondheim are facing exciting competitions, and the eighth day will be a real big day of competition!

“This is definitely the right decision,” emphasized Christoph Bieler, the head coach of the ÖSV combined, about the postponed event. These words reflect the team's responsible actions: “We must ensure the safety of the athletes”. Johannes Lamparter, one of the top combiners from Austria, also commented positively on the cancellation of the competition: “Of course it’s a shame, but it’s also about our well-being.” This day will be characterized by nervousness and hope that the conditions will improve and the competition can be rescheduled as planned, the Kleine Zeitung also reports.
