An all blue Monday, one of the most important days of the entire Beijing 2022 Olympic review for Italy.
Yes, because there are so many medal chances in multiple disciplines, starting with that queen: it will be the great night of alpine skiing, with the first two titles up for grabs by the female giant of Brignone and Bassino, which will challenge Shiffrin, Hector, Vlhova & Co. from the first heat set at 2.30 am Italian (Yanqing 9.30), while the second is scheduled at 7.30 after the men's descent. After today's postponement, it is hoped that the wind will give breath to the jet men, on the track from 5.00 am for the most awaited race of the Games.
At 2.30 am the qualifications of the freeski big air will also begin, both for women and men, then at 4.45 the final of the figure skating team event will be decided (with Italy seventh and excluded from the free program).
At 5.00 the start of the three runs to award the medals of the slopestyle snowboard at the men's level, with Emiliano Lauzi among the 12 greats in the competition.
After the female giant with the decisive heat in the early morning, a little breath after coffee and croissant and it will still be a show with the blue women: at 9.30 the 1500 meters of speed skating begin with Francesca Lollobrigida looking for another medal after the splendid silver of the 3000, then at 10.00 off to the women's biathlon individual, with Dorothea Wierer immediately starting with bib number 4 and also the Lisa Vittozzi card, who started her Olympics well with the relay fraction .
From 12.30 another couple of hours of ... fire and ice: Arianna Fontana immediately on the track to defend the Olympic title of 500 meters, starting from the quarter-finals up to the final goal (set at 13.45), followed by a few minutes later from that of the men's 1000 short track. At 12.45 the race for the medals in the jump with the mixed team race will also start (without Italy), from 12.50 the first two runs of the women's single sledding, and not to be missed there will also be the splendid Stefania Constantini and Mosaner , engaged from 13.05 in a historic semifinal of the mixed doubles of curling (the blue couple will play again tonight at 2.05 against Canada in the last match of the round robin, irrelevant with 1st place already in their pocket).
Finally, another four matches of the first phase as regards the women's ice hockey tournament, with Switzerland-Finland closing the program from 2.10 pm. All this, live on Rai 2 from 2.00 until 11.00 (then the passage on Rai Sport), and on the various Discovery + platforms, from the Player to the Eurosport channels.
