With the dream of a consecutive trio, to get closer to the historic poker signed by Compagnoni and Karbon in the giants at the start of the season, Marta Bassino will be the beacon of the second giant of Courchevel, the third of a World Cup season that, at least between the doors wide, sees the Cuneo as a reference in the discipline (and be careful because at the overall level, even if it is too early to talk about it, we could have fun ...). On Sunday the new appointment on the “Stade Emile-Allais”, with much better weather forecasts than today's storm and times set at 9.30 and 12.30 for the two heats (with live TV on Eurosport and Rai Sport); Marta can smile because, in the afternoon draw of the bibs, she drew the 4th winning result again today, albeit “obscured” by the red symbol of leadership in the cup. It will be Mina Fuerst Holtmann, here second 12 months ago, but coming out in the first giant, to wear the first bib preceding Mikaela Shiffrin, again with the 2, and Petra Vlhova who caught the 3 and will aim for the sixth podium in as many seasonal races. After “Bax”, maximum attention to the amazing Sara Hector seen today (for her it is the return to the first sub-group thanks to this 2nd place, ed); the Swede will start just before Federica Brignone, who took number 6, and an Alice Robinson looking for redemption after the half-disaster of race 1. In Sofia Goggia it went much better than the draw 24 hours ago: bib n ° 8 for the Bergamo rider who proved to have at least top ten potential, but today she finished 18th after a sensational error in the final of the second heat that it had cost the first group. The resignation of Meta Hrovat, who had not started today in the second heat today due to back problems, brought her back between 15 and allowed her to have a large number.
