Iivo Niskanen got inspiration from his sister Kerttu Niskanen performance on the second race day of the Tour de Ski. Kerttu Niskanen nicely squeezed from 12th place to second place and rose to the shared first place in the Tour.

Iivo Niskas is also expected to overtake, but a podium place would still require a small miracle. Niskanen, who returned to the race tracks on Saturday, starts from the rear in turn 57 and 1:13 minutes, the top man Johannes from Kläbo.

Iivo Niskanen’s goal in the World Cup failed, but success can still be expected from Finland’s top skier.
