sport">Amsterdam – Claudia Pechstein (49) will be on the ice for the mass start of the Olympic Games in Tokyo in a good month without accident. It will be the eighth Games for the German speed skater, who was there for the first time in Albertville in 1992 and not without success, when she took bronze in the 5000 meters in her last teenage days. The world looked very different back then.
