As Paul Guschlbauer (AUT1) yomps up to Turnpoint 7 Titlis, Aaron Durogati (ITA1) – pictured by Honza Zak – and Benoit Outters (FRA1), who came second in the Red Bull X-Alps 2017, look set to spend the day battling over fourth position. Durogati, who is 'feeling strong' and is expected to reach Titlis at around 11.30am, has the edge at the moment. But Outters is just 5km behind and may prove faster on the ascent if they have to hike.
