The moment d & rsquo; gold alpine skiing blue not only does not stop, but if you can improve: in the first of two downhills fact Kristian Ghedina slaughters the competition, returning to victory almost five years after the success at & Aring; King, who also represented l & rsquo; last victory of an Italian in a men's downhill World Cup. For Ghedina, who gi & agrave; the week before in Kitzb & uuml; hel had savor the joy of the podium, & egrave; a victory that permanently erases the long period of darkness caused by the terrible car accident that cut short his playing seemed to him. If you exclude the combined Kitzb & uuml; hel, l & rsquo; Italian touches share ten consecutive podiums, record ever again & ugrave; even closer in the future and that in the past had been achieved only at the time of the avalanche blue. Behind dell & rsquo; Ampezzo are placed two Austrians, the young and surprising Peter Rzehak, only to limit the posting under the second (85 cents to be precise), and Hannes Trinkl. The fledglings red and white, which ranks also Armin Assinger fifth behind Atle Sk & aring; Rdal and Josef Strobl sixth, they have to complain because Patrick Ortlieb slips off the track in the final stretch when he was l & rsquo; only one who could deprive Ghedina of a deserved victory . Heavy in the withdrawal of G & uuml; nther Mader: fresh from success in the super-G in Kitzbuhel, Mader seemed l & rsquo; only one able to order a groped & ndash; however unlikely & ndash; Tomb of recovery in the overall standings, but l & rsquo; output suffered in this race weighs twice as the FIS, with a bizarre stunt of his, considers this descent valid for combined instead of the scheduled for Saturday. Mader therefore sees vanish pi & ugrave; 100 points that seemed sure, that launches & ndash; even if proof were needed & ndash; Tomba towards the conquest of the crystal ball. Alberto fact remains clearly the lead with 850 points against the 482 of Mader and 430 of Kosir. Basically nothing changes, as well Girardelli and & Aring; modt collect crumbs peaking respectively in thirteenth and twenty-ninth place and remained in fifth and sixth place behind even Luc Alphand, seventh in the downhill in Wengen tied with Xavier Gigandet. L & rsquo; next new descent that unless sensational shocks does not seem destined to revolutionize the hierarchies of a World Cup now headed toward the & rsquo; Emilian Apennines.
