A race to the top on the slopes of Zittau

‍

Only 6 days after the dust has settled in Prachatice the series heads to Zittau, Germany for another full-distance and short track double-header weekend. It’s the last of the European stops outside of the World Championship and perhaps the last chance for Euro racers to use the home-turf advantage to make a play for the top of the leaderboard. It's also the only double-feature stop where the short track race takes place before the full-distance tri.

With stop #4 and 5 being in such close proximity, it will be interesting to see how these races are used strategically. Who backs themselves for better results in Zittau and who has the strength to race both Belgium and Germany remains to be known, but from here only one stop remains in the USA before the big dance in Trentino, Italy.
