Linn Svahn started the Tour de Ski by surprisingly going out already in the quarter-finals of the sprint.
After that, things have continued to go smoothly for the Swede, who after four stages is in 15th place, 4.15 minutes behind the Norwegian Astrid Öyre Slind.
– It feels better than it is, says Svahn, who does not want to comment on whether it is the material that is failing.
– Don’t know. I will not comment anything about it.
In today’s chase start, Svahn finished as the 19th rider, 3.49.2 behind the victorious Öyre Slind. She picked up two places during the race but lost almost two minutes to the Norwegians at the top.
How is it mentally when it feels better than it is going?
– It’s tough. But it’s a tour and a new day every day with new races. You just have to try to do something good.
In the clip above, Linn Svahn then clearly shows her dissatisfaction with the next question.
