200 m flying laps

200m flying laps – senior ladies

We keep the same top four as for 300m time trial and 500m sprint but the order is different! This time, Manon Kamminga (NED, 15,958) was a bit faster than Laethisia Schimek (GER, 16,009). Manon seems to have recovered quite well after her fall in the point/elimination race.
Erika Zanetti (ITA, 16,013) took the last place on the podium in front of Jana Gegner (GER, 16,051)

Such a low turnout for the European Championship is a disservice to skating.
