Nadine Fähndrich, who beat Jasmi Joensuu in the final race, believes that Finland’s poor departure point in the final of the couple’s message may have been fatal.

Due to the difficulties of the qualifying, Joensuu and Kerttu Niskanen had to tear the difference from 14th place, and eventually Joensuu coagulated fourth.

“It’s hard to start from the back so far because there are now 15 teams and 10 is not easy,” Fähndrich estimates.

The Swiss passed Joensuu after the duo had skied to the stadium and leaned out of the last bend.

– When I came on another hill, I thought we were getting them now, Fähndrich said.

When asked about Fähndrich whether the Swiss tactics were better than Finland, he laughed.

– Our tactics worked well. We are delighted to have bronze.

The bronze team never gave up, even though the difference to Finland sometimes seemed unattainable.

– We never stopped believing. We tried to give our best. We wanted to go hard but not too hard, fähndrich and Anja Weber They said.
