After the decision taken yesterday with the closure of the Plateau Rosà glacier, today the important meeting scheduled for next weekend for the World Cup group of multipurpose teams (and also that of the European Cup sprinters) was officially canceled. At the end of August, the return to South America will be essential for all the blue teams.

Luckily there is ... Argentina.
In about a month (only the FISI is expected to become official with the dates of the various departures of the groups), the Italian national teams will return, after two years of absence due to a pandemic, on the snows of Ushuaia for a preparation block that will be even more important than usual.
Yes, because the current situation of the glaciers of the Alps, with the series closures of Tignes, Les Deux Alpes, Stelvio and, news of a few hours ago, of the Plateau Rosà in the Zermatt / Cervinia area, complicates the plans also of the Italian teams of the highest level.
This morning, the Federation formalized the cancellation of the training that the blue multipurpose teams would have had to face in Cervinia from 30 July to 6 August. A fundamental week for Brignone, Bassino (who have only skied a few days so far) and the other girls in Giovanni Feltrin's group, namely Pirovano, Pichler, Melesi, Curtoni and the Delago sisters. At the same time, no trip to the Valle d'Aosta snow also for the 8 sprinters of the men's European Cup group called up from Friday 29 July.
