The second stage of the Arctic Race of Norway brought another sprint finish and with it came another victory for home favourite Alexander Kristoff (Uno-X Mobility).
The Norwegian sprint star triumphed for the second time in two days in the bunch sprint, beating out Tom Van Asbroeck (Israel-Premier Tech) in Fauske, while Uno-X teammate Magnus Cort rounded out the podium in third place.
After winning stage 1 in Rognan, Kristoff's second stage victory – his sixth of 2024 and the 94th of his career – means that he extends his GC lead at the midway point of the four-day race.
