How was the speed of Lukas Bauer compared to Petter Northug up Alpe Cermis in the last editions of Tour de Ski? And how has Petra Majdic’s speed been compared to Justyna Kowalczyk? Below you find the results from the last Tour de Ski leg the three last years.

Lukas Bauer was 41 seconds ahead of Petter Norhug last year and 51 seconds ahead two years ago. Northug now has a lead of less than 10 seconds, but has improved a lot this season compared to last year. It is going to be exciting!

In the womens class, Kowalczyk was 1.18 ahead of Majdic last year, and 36 seconds ahead two years ago. Majdic’s lead is 31 seconds. Looks to be just as exciting as the mens edition!
