One day after finishing 8th, Gregor Deschwanden is also in the top ten in the second World Cup competition in Lillehammer in fifth place.

The 33-year-old from Lucerne was already in 5th place after the first round with a jump of 135 m, the second jump he landed after 132 m. This was a promising start to the season.

Simon Ammann, who is competing in his 28th World Cup season, reached the final round in contrast to the previous day (46th), in which he dropped four places to 30th. For Felix Trunz (35th) and Killian Peier (46th), on the other hand, the competition was once again over after the first jump.

Austrian Jan Hörl secured victory ahead of German Pius Paschke, who had triumphed on Saturday. Austrian Daniel Tschofenig, who came second the day before, completed the podium.
