NRK asked Weng if he was waiting for an apology from Sundling.
– I think you can apologize or ask if everything is fine. That’s what I would have done, Weng said.
NRK Ski Specialist Torgeir Bjönin Weng should take responsibility for the situation himself.

Nousiainen reminded that Sundling has not been the greed of the Swedish star.
– He was careless. Nothing else, Nousiainen underlined.
Lassila was on the same line as Björn.
– When you go to the bend, there must be a default for someone’s possible fall, Lassila emphasized.
