In the winter, the Northug brothers may find themselves at a home World Championship together, but younger brother Even casts doubt on whether elder brother Petter can clinch a spot. Petter has openly indicated his desire to compete, particularly in the team sprint event, but Even believes that the chances of this happening are minimal, agreeing with Petter's own estimate of 0.05 percent likelihood. Meanwhile, Even is optimistic about his own preparations as he overcomes a recent back injury and looks ahead to the season, hoping for a successful winter filled with competition and high performance.
