Sweden won the mens relay in the WC opener in Gällivare today after a tough fight with Russia. Three athletes did exceptional performances today: Dario Cologna for Switzerland on the second leg (see flat black curve in the illustration above between split 4 and 8 ) and Hellner/Legkov on the last leg (close to flat red/blue curves between split 12 and finish).

In the above Splitsbrowser-screenshot a flat line on a split means that an athlete is the fastest on a split. The steeper the line goes, the more an athlete looses on that split.
