After the Beat Feuz descent, it's already super-g time for the jet men.
Wind permitting, which today was practically irrelevant on Yanqing's “Rock”, we are again on the eve of an Olympic competition for the men's sector. Tomorrow from 4.00 (live on Rai 2, Eurosport 1 / Eurosport Player), on the track designed by Reto Nydegger, responsible for the speed of the Swiss team that today celebrated the gold of a legend, we will see more or less the same protagonists even if there will not be Johan Clarey, wonderful silver downhill, with Alexis Pinturault in the French quartet and at the start immediately with bib number 3.
In front of the prediction, however, there will be those who dominated the season in this discipline: Aleksander Aamodt Kilde and Marco Odermatt above all, respectively with bibs 7 and 9, to look for the first Olympic medal, but also the world champion Vincent Kriechmayr, who will start with 11, and Matthias Mayer (13), or the reigning champion and already bronze in descent (who champion the Carinthian, medal for the third consecutive edition at the Games).
Behind the poker of aces, it is hoped that a blue can enter: Dominik Paris, 6th in "his" race, will start with number 6 and all in all it is a good draw even if, it must be said, this year in super-g the champion of Val d''Ultimo suffered a lot. Christof Innerhofer, on the other hand, fished on the 18th, very angry after today's exit, Matteo Marsaglia on the 23rd. China with the hope, thanks to a renunciation or by replacing him with another blue, to be able to field him in the favorite match of the Piedmontese.
Other names to watch for the Olympic super-g? The trio from 14 to 16, with Cochran-Siegle, Feuz (although it will depend a lot on the track) and above all James Crawford, fabulous 4th downhill and now ready to play for a podium at these levels. And also Haaser and Franz could place the paw, they who will close the group of the first twenty.
