Beijing 2022: tomorrow at 2.30 am Italian the 1st round of the great challenge between wide doors. Hector (bib 6) the favorite, followed by Shiffrin champion in charge, but the two blue want the medal. And watch out for outsiders ...

A thrilling female giant, from every point of view.
For the level of the contenders for the medals and the Beijing 2022 Olympic title, but also for the Yanqing slope which is steep, demanding and with the extra difficulties created by this completely artificial snow.
If the wind can complicate the plans of the downhill skiers, who will try again by competing between the two heats of the giant, everything should go smoothly for the first date with the girls in these Olympic Games: at 2.30 Italian time (9.30 local time) on Monday away, on Slovenian tracing (apparently very fast, with fairly close doors considering the difference in height), while the second heat was rescheduled at 7.30 (all live on Rai 2 and Eurosport 1 / Eurosport Player).
We will start from the start of the male giant, a novelty of the last few hours since we realized how the “original” giant for the girls would have been too short; it will once again be Petra Vlhova, who has fished again the bib 1, to open the race and look for her first Olympic medal.
Michelle Gisin with number 2 will precede the bronze in charge Federica Brignone: the Aosta Valley is doing well and, although in this period she is better suited to the super-g than the giant, she wants to play the best tomorrow. Tessa Worley (never on the Olympic podium) will have the 4th, then here is Marta Bassino, who was fifth in PyeongChang, has collected “only” two podiums this season, but she is here betting everything on this appointment.
