The weather should be ok, in particular the wind under control, for the first confrontation with the “Rock” of Yanqing, the runway that will host the Olympic descent of the jet men on Sunday.
Training number 1 (of the three scheduled) is scheduled for Thursday morning, at 11.00 local time and then at 4.00 Italian time (with direct guaranteed on Eurosport Player), to begin to understand the values in the field on a slope totally new to anyone. It will be Matthias Mayer, who won the Olympic gold in downhill in 2014 in front of Christof Innerhofer, to open the dance with bib number 1, before Dominik Paris with the 3 and Marco Odermatt with the 5. For the champion blue it will be essential to understand especially the adaptation to this completely artificial snow, with "Domme" who will then observe the tests of Kriechmayr (n ° 7), Kilde (13) and Feuz (15), but also of all those potential outsiders from Olympic Games, first of all we think of Crawford (in the test with number 12) and Cochran-Siegle (20), or high quality North American athletes who could find themselves very well in these conditions.
