A first test already very interesting, also because the track is new for everyone and you have to adapt quickly.
"La VolatA" in Passo San Pellegrino had its baptism, in the first of the two trainings (Thursday the encore) towards the historic debut of the Val di Fassa in the World Cup, with the women's descents scheduled for Friday and Saturday in addition to the super-g on Sunday. In front of everyone in practice, and it is not the first time that this has happened to her even if she has yet to materialize in the race (the super-g is another matter, with the great results obtained in Garmisch), Kajsa Vickhoff Lie; the Norwegian finished in just over 1''25 "(quite short track, but very interesting for its variety), with 41 hundredths of a margin over Breezy Johnson, potentially the most dangerous for Sofia Goggia in view of the specialty World Cup seen that the American is the first pursuer at 195 points from the absent Bergamo (as well as, in this case by choice thinking of snowboarding, in Val di Fassa there is not even Ester Ledecka), and 46 on Lara Gut-Behrami who gave immediately the feeling of being at ease even on this track, clearly signing the best partial in the heart of VolatA.
The direct rivals of the Ticino for the general World Cup, Petra Vlhova and Michelle Gisin, did not impress, concluding respectively at 2 "74 and 1" 81 from the top, while in fourth place of the day here is the only blue up there in front in ranking, a very good Nadia Delago who pays only 61 cents from Lie and was even second halfway through the test.

Brignone, Goggia e Bassino, un avvicinamento a Soelden (e alla stagione) totalmente differente
Le tre stelle della nazionale, mentre Pirovano e Curtoni continuano a lavorare bene a Ushuaia, stanno vivendo momenti opposti quando mancano 40 giorni all'opening: la bi campionessa olimpica continua il recupero e nel week-end ha raggiunto le amiche (ed ex colleghe) Pircher e Agerer, per la fuoriclasse bergamasca il rientro dall'Argentina e gli esami in arrivo per chiarire la situazione. E la cuneese due volte iridata? Il dt Rulfi ha svelato a Gianmario Bonzi che i tempi negli allenamenti di gigante sono già buoni...
