Fabian Roth and Andreas Niederhauser: What's in store for them at the finals in the far north at the beginning of 2017 is still a secret. However, it is already known that snow- and ice-filled adventures in a spectacular environment are to be expected.

Qualifying participants: More than 300 male and female chauffeurs from various brands applied for qualifying via Roadstars, Mercedes' interactive trucker portal. 20 were then shortlisted.

The winners prevailed in qualifying against 18 other participants.

Jürg Lüthi, Director Trucks Mercedes-Benz Switzerland: "Each individual mastered the challenges with aplomb, but in the end only two can win. I wish the first-place winners good luck and success for the final."
