Best cross-country skier in the world, Johannes Klaebo will not be present with the Norwegian team this weekend for the World Cup stage in France, in the resort of Les Rousses.
The recent Tour de Ski winner also opted out of the Norwegian championships this week in order to prepare for the world championships.
« It’s a disaster for Norwegian cross-country skiing.”
This latest package, at home, offended Gudbrand Skraastad, president of the organizing committee. “He could at least do the 10 kilometer classic scheduled for Wednesday. It’s a disaster for Norwegian cross-country skiing. And also for the next generation. Cross-country skiing really needs recruitment and young people want to see the best. They want to see their models. I think this is disrespectful and unacceptable. »
-Too bad also for the Jura resort, which will not see the five-time Olympic champion.
