QUOTES – Team Sprint
31 January  2015

NORWAY - 1st place

We're very happy about today's race. The World Championships get closer and when you win you get stronger also in the head. Team races have always been our favourite, we've got long tradition in team events. We knew Joergen is a great sprinter and in the cross country part we managed to save the energies for the sprint. Great strategy at the end of the day. Jan also did a fantastic jump. We want to get the best result also in the Individual now.

GERMANY - 2nd place

We are satisfied, we've been racing together in team for long and after the jump we were sure we could fight for medals as well as for gold. The Norwegians were awesome in the last two laps and beat all. It's been a good day for Germany anyway I'd say, the second place is a great result.

AUSTRIA - 3rd place

We had a great weekend so far. We all like the hills in Predazzo, we got good results here at the World Championships in 2013 and today we are happy with the third spot. We saved energies all the way through the first eight laps of skiing and Bernie attacked on the last uphill, but the other guys managed to stay right behind him and eventually passed him. He could have waited a bit, but it's really hard to predict what might happen every time.
