A Marseillaise for three. That said, the race of men held today at the ski cross track Rosa Khutor Extreme Park, the same place where in days gone by there were the female and male snowboard cross races. More than an Olympic race, a national championship in bleu sauce. France is sold out and takes all steps of the podium, while Canada's Brady Leman you have to settle for fourth place, also because of a fall while he was in full scrimmage to spoil the party Alps. Vince Jean Frederic Chapuis, before Arnaud Bovolenta and Jonathan Midol.
As of this classic sport, spectacular and adrenaline, there was a match full of emotions and twists, with many excellent releases from the early rounds and with the usual menu full of contacts, sportellate, jumps to scream before goal, also extended until 50/60 meters. One of the big favorites to win the final, the Swede Victor Oehling Norberg is left out of the final speech, as well as David Duncan (Canada), Daniel Bohnacker (Germany), Andreas Matt (brother of Mario skier and Olympic silver medalist in Vancouver ) and Switzerland's Alex Fiva. All people who in the World Cup podiums and victories but that has now remained out of the contest medals, in a race that saw the absence of'' Italian'' s departure and the lack of gold in Vancouver, the Swiss Michael Schmid.
Russia has dreamed medal with Egor Korotkov, came up to the semi-finals but then forced to settle eventually won the small final for fifth place finish.
