Vancouver, BC, Canada (GenevaLunch) - Dario Cologna captured a third gold medal for Switzerland, in the 1,500m men’s free in cross-country skiing, with a time of 33:36.3. Cologna’s wine makes Switzerland the country with the most gold medals in the 2010 Olympic Winter Games. Italian Pietro Piller Cottrer took silver, with a time of 34:00.9 and Lukas Bauer won bronze for the Czech Republic, finishing in 34:12.0.

The 23-year-old Cologna, from canton Graubuenden, has already made it clear, according to the Swiss Olympic Committee, that this race was just serving as a warmup for him to next Saturday’s 30km pursuit event.
