Bowe's winning margin is really impressive!

 

Zbigniew Brodka hints this could be his last international race. He didn't get a special bye from the State Fire Service this season and this probably won't change going forward so he doesn't see how he can continue being an elite skater anymore.

1:54.40 for Melissa Wijfje, oh my  

 

More than a second under her now old PB and the 2nd fastest time ever in Inzell.

[heywoodu 16,434]

1:53.76 De Jong, goodbye Wüst's five year old track record   

[heywoodu 16,434]

1:52.81 Wüst, unbelievable
