Cross-country skiing: the World Cup returns to the Jura
After a 2023 edition that won over the public and was also a success for the French athletes, the cross-country skiing world cup in Les Rousses (Jura) is making its big return to the international calendar. This Friday 17 January, at 1.30pm, the best cross-country skiers on the circuit will meet up again after more than ten days without competition following the Tour de Ski.
On the programme for the first day is an individual skate race over 10 kilometres. At 3.45pm, the women cross-country skaters will take to the track in a race that Delphine Claudel won two years ago. On Saturday, a classic sprint will be on the programme for the second day.
Winner of the previous edition in front of a furious crowd, Richard Jouve will be hoping to repeat his performance in the Jura. Finally, on Sunday, the event closes with the classic 20-kilometre mass-start. The women will open the ball, while the men will close the weekend at 3.45pm.
