Cesana (pps) „Plankensteiner/Haselrieder made it really hard for us to win this race“, Christian Oberstolz said after the second victory of the season at the Viessmann Luge. Just 17 thousand of a second was the advantage of Oberstolz/Patrick Gruber at the end to their team-mates.

“Plankensteiner/Haselrieder made it really hard for us to win this race. First they won the Challenge Cup on Friday. And today they are in the lead after the first run. So we gave our best and attacked in the second run.”

„We are very satisfied. We have still the problem at the start. There we loose too much time. But we are driving really good. And the material is good.”

“This is a great feeling. We missed the race at Königssee, because we improved our sledge at home in Latvia. Thanks to our coaches, they helped us even at Christmas and New Year.”
