Jorrit Bergsma special and on Sunday for the world CHAMPIONSHIP distances, in Salt Lake City for his moderate performances in the 5 to 10 miles in on a beautiful gold win, on the massastart.
“that’s a nice one,” said Bergsma, with a grin on his face from ear-to-ear after the award ceremony. “After a tournament in which just didn’t work and in my individual distances can be very disappointing, it is great to see the massastart to win.”
The 34-year-old Friesian, was a Thursday and only the eighth in the 5k and came in a day later, as the three-fold world champion and the defending champion will not go further than a place to four in the 10-kilometer.
On the final day of the uci road world championships at the Utah Olympic Oval, he managed, however, to the massastart. Bd arranged in a two-up sprint in a kopgroepje off the Ice, Jordan Belchos and Antoine Gélinas-Beaulieu.
“winning The world championships in the 10 km, it is to me very dear, and it pains me that I lost this week,” said Bergsma. “But with this title, I didn’t have it, so I’m very happy that I am now the world champion in the massastart.”

“I can still do,” said Bergsma. “I have to say that I also have a couple of great nights I’ve had, and that was earlier in the week, so be it. The massastart is a lot different than the 5 or 10 km. In it, the timing is really wrong, and this is more or less a game of wait and see and seize the chance.”
The Dutch marathon champion on kunstijs of 2015, has many years of experience in the game, and that advantage is he played like a Sunday far from the fastest rink in the world. Bd, saw the danger of a breakaway group of four, drove single-handedly to the front and made it to the next pretty print.
“I knew that I had to respond to when the group drove off,” said the winner. “I was just stuck in the pack, but it was still a quick release. Then I did some things on the spare of the hole dichtgereden. With four laps to go I was there and I could have a moment to catch his breath. It was just enough to take the sprint and win.”
