GPS tracking at FIS Tour de Ski
The developing partner of the GPS tracking feature has been working hard on making the feature better and more sophisticated. On the Tour de Ski, the GPS tracking will be available during the Cortina-Toblach competition and of course for the Final Climb on Alpe Cermis.
On Thursday, January 5th simply click on the home page on the desired race in the "GPS Tracking" yellow box and a pop-up window will appear with a course map and a list of athletes. What you need to do then is only to select your desired athletes and follow them live.
