Alexander Legkov RUS

"I felt very good today. The course was not that icy like yesterday. I felt very good during the prologue. I will think about the plan for tomorrow's pursuit in the evening but there are many good skiers out there. I have to focus on my skiing tomorrow and find my way out of the pack."
 
Marcus Hellner SWE
"It was very cold in Gallivare.  So I wasn't sure of my fitness before the Tour.  But I am feeling good. Tomorrow I will try hard, but classic is not my best so I will see how it goes."
 
Petter Northug Jr. NOR
"I like very much this kind of competitions. Today it was all about technique. It was not that easy to find the right flow. I have won just the first stage. Nobody will remember it on Alpe Cermis.  I am going to take it easy in the first round tomorrow. For sure Dario and others will be strong and will be chasing me. It will be important to find the right spot in the pack. "
