no surprise at the end, Riiber with finger in the nose, as easy as it could

 

Silver for Herola, bronze Oftebro.. not the hockey one

Really? I think barely any experts considered him the favorite before the start with only 20 seconds advantage compared to Riessle/Frenzel. Obviously the Norwegians either had insane material or had a great „training“ camp. When even some rando like Oftebro can beat Riessle/Frenzel, you know that something weird is going on.

Oftebro beat both of them many times this season so it is not like some sudden miracle or so

Yeah. Koivuranta - Manninen Duo in Nordic Combined was unstoppable. Luckily with Herola things are looking bright

Don’t know what you mean with „Riiber did the same“. I am sure he didn’t plan to have such a bad jump. Not sure what happened with the Germans today but if Geiger would have been in normal shape, Riiber might have very well lost this race (given that Geiger started almost at the same time as Herola and usually is at pretty much the same level of skiing, but much better at sprints).

 

Recently the German guys completely dominated Oftebro in cross-country skiing and often took around 1 minute off of him. It is very surprising that he also was able to beat someone like Watabe. I think either a lot of guys are completely out of shape or they just couldn’t deal with the conditions (maybe thanks to bad material). In a usual race there is no way that Oftebro would have finished ahead of Frenzel/Riessle/Watabe and that Herola would have finished that far ahead of Geiger.

I would totally agree with @hckošice, no surprise there, perhaps I was at least expecting Geiger would also close to main group, other than that it is going to be awful Worlds for hosts, knowing their ever lasting high expectations.

      Qualification status that could realistically change this week, barring (except where noted) new time qualifying performances :   Men   500m : pretty much done   1000m : pretty much done   1500m : pretty much done   5000m : one outlier at the moment  Semirunniy. He's currently not qualified for the distance being 18/15 in the rankings and R1 time-wise. He could still punch his ticket :    either by getting into the top 15 with a very good result (a podium or even a win would be needed). If it is at the expanse of  Henriksen or, less likely,  Swings, then the loser is out. If it is at the expanse of any other, then  Sasaki is out.  or by hoping Lorello gets into the top 15 at the expanse of Henriksen or Swings. or by going faster than Sasaki (6'08''834) which seems reachable after his 10k, even in Hamar.   10000m : once again Henriksen is on the bubble. If  Maly, Petzold of  Farthofer gets into the top 9 at the expanse of Malfatti or Snellink, then he's out.    Mass-start : not much at stake considering most of the reserve skaters will already receive an additional quota - at the moment    . Morino  will try to enter top 32 and be in those additional quota spots.    Team pursuit : pretty much done   Women   500m : pretty much done   1000m : with  Thorup not cleared to participate one more spot is up for grabs.  Scholz would need to be in front of both Herzog (done as she's not entered) and Czerwonka (7 points) after this final week.  Silaeva would be left out.    1500m : Lamarche not competing and  Zofia Braun being promoted to A division, Poland has got a real shot at a second quota. Braun will need to stay in front of Scholz and Weidemann, who could still finish ahead of her depending on how good Braun fares in A division.  Smedding would suffer from a Polish rise.   3000m : match-up between  Yang and  Horikawa only separated by 3 points. At the moment Yang is out (R2) but if they exchange position in the standings then Horikawa is out (R1). They could also both finish ahead of Hofmann, at the expanse of  Golubeva ultimately.  Jasch has a small shot at a second German quota too, by edging the former two skaters, eliminating them.    5000m : pretty much done   Mass-start :  Santo Rodrigues is hanging on by a thread. The cruelty of it is that those immediately behind her -    - will get an aditional spot anyways, so it does not really matter if they finish in the top 24 ahead of her, except it would allow France to enter a second skater and two girls in the MS.   Team pursuit : three-way asymetrical tie for the last SOQP spot between   and , all in division A. Norway needs to beat both as they can't rely on a time Q, Kazakhstan needs to beat Norway to ensure (if they fail to beat China) the first SOQT spot and avoid the Italian wild-card*, whereas China is pretty safe. *  is currently out but they "only" need to get into a reserve spot to be qualified, which is going faster than 3'00'92 (or faster than Norway if they too decide to skate faster). They were not far off this mark in Hamar earlier this year but the team was in a better shape overall.
