Johannes Lochner leads all in his wake after excellent Bobsleigh World Cup weekend in Yanqing

Johannes Lochner accomplished an excellent bobsleigh weekend unbeaten after clinching the four-man gold medal on the IBSF World Cup opener.

The 2022 Olympic silver medallist gained the two-man bobsleigh in addition to each races within the four-man throughout a blistering weekend in Yanqing, China.

Lochner and his crew of Georg Fleischhauer, Joshua Tasche and Florian Bauer completed 0.31 seconds forward of Italy’s Patrick Baumgartner, with Olympic and world champion Francesco Friedrich of Germany an additional 0.32 seconds again on Sunday.

Baumgartner’s silver noticed him grow to be the primary Italian to climb the four-man podium since December 2006, when Fabrizio Tosini completed third in Lake Placid.

Lochner, who gained final season’s Crystal Globe, sits on 450 factors within the total standings.

He’s 40 factors away from countryman Friedrich, who completed second on Saturday, whereas Baumgartner holds third.

The World Cup motion resumes on December 8 in La Plagne, France.
