Sven Kramer being utterly destroyed by Patrick Roest, who goes to 6:09.83 :bowdown: 

 

Halfway he was still on pace for 6:05 even :lol:

A Dutch qualifying championships where there's a rider with a 10k PB of well over 15 minutes....don't see that every day :d

(He'll destroy that though, yet another top marathon rider who is making the move - at least partially - to the 10k)

@heywoodu Do you know if the mass start is reserved only for the Dutch athletes or if Lollobrigida can compete?

There is no start list yet, so I wouldn't dare say it for sure. So far in most distances though there were 1 or 2 international pairs, something to do with ISU rules saying qualifying for international races can only happen in international races (so they added some international athletes). No idea why that wouldn't count for the 10k (M) or 5k (W), since there were no internationals there as you can see on the start lists: https://www.schaatsen.nl/kalender/2019/11/world-cup-kwalificatie-toernooi/#!#startlijstenuitslagen

"We're going to the men's 1000m, the last distance of the weekend."

 

Even Dutch public TV doesn't acknowledge the joke that is the mass start.
