SPEED SKATING. International invitation race as part of the German championships in Inzell, Bavaria: The 16-year-old Jeannine Rosner and the former team sprint Youth Olympic champion Ignaz Gschwentner put on intensive talent tests. After 40.36 seconds over 500m, Rosner increased her best time over 1000m to 1:18.92 minutes, which was already excellent for her age, while Gschwentner passed her first sound barrier to the expanded world class in 36.09 seconds over 500m. Alexander Farthofer, not yet in top form, came eighth in the mass start, as did Rosner in the women’s field.
The age contrast program to the Austrian youngsters in Inzell was provided by the 51-year-old East German die-hard Claudia Pechstein, who won her 43rd championship title over 5000m in 7:17.74. Simply unbelievable!
