Ski jumping scandal
Hannawald is concerned about sport: “buried in two years”
The World Cup scandal should have been the beginning for very difficult months for ski jumping. A German icon is very concerned.
The German ski jumping legend Sven Hannawald worries about his sport after the suit scandal at the World Cup in Trondheim. “In my worst nightmare, I would not have thought that it would come.
Anonymously filmed and published videos have been causing great excitement in ski jumping since Saturday. On the moving images you can see how the Norwegian team in the presence of head coach Magnus Brevig processes the competition suits in an inadmissible way. Sports director Jan Erik Aalbu admitted on Sunday at a press conference that the association knowingly cheated on two suits.
The 50-year-old Hannawald had suspected irregularities well before the memorable World Cup Saturday. He had said that the current situation was forced to cheat. In his work as a co-commentator of the ARD, the former four-hill tour tour was repeatedly pointed out to striking suits. Marius Lindvik and Johann André Forfang were disqualified on Saturday due to suit manipulation. Your further results have existed so far.
