Gällivare

The ski cross world cup final premiered at Dundret in Gällivare, where Sandra Näslund dominated time trials and could secure the overall victory this weekend. The event was relocated from Idre fjäll, with organizers preparing in just three months, and faces controversy over sponsorship from Azerbaijan.

A Swedish businessman from Gällivare, who disappeared in 2023, was arrested in Cyprus in December 2024, escaped after bribing officials, and was recaptured and imprisoned.
