Dario Cologna is back in the World Cup circus. After the end of the last race in Davos, according to his latest television assessment, the four-time Olympic champion trudges into the finish area, sometimes meeting a former colleague here, sometimes shaking hands there. The Norwegian Hans Christer Holund, who has just finished second over the 20 kilometres, jokingly delivers his prize bouquet to Cologne.

The Swiss cross-country legend, who retired in the spring, is clearly enjoying being reunited with his old mates. And at this moment, even a little pressure will drop: the baptism of fire of his commentator on the SRF microphone is over. Cologna could be heard on live TV for the first time on Saturday and Sunday at the home World Cup: “Of course it was new for me, but it was fun. All the more so when Switzerland is so successful”. Why: his first assignment included Nadine Fähndrich’s big sprint victory.
