The world champion, sitting in 2nd in the general rankings 2’29’’ off the lead, is looking well set to continue the excellent vein of form from the 2021 season.

“I’m happy that there are not so many journalists around me because with this Covid situation it can be not so good, but finally we are in a good position. I feel quite good, I didn’t crash, but it looks like the rally really starts in the second week”.
