Brignone far from Goggia and Bassino, a situation to be managed better towards the Olympics

Fede will almost always train separately, in any case facing the trip to South America which should be confirmed. The changes in the men's speed team, decidedly "softer".

It is a delicate situation and to be managed in the best possible way, it is useless to deny it or ignore it. The finale of last season, with the utterances of Federica Brignone, tired and disappointed with what happened in the race and beyond, was only the confirmation that the elite trio of women, that of wonders and of the many victories, medals and cups of recent years, in fact it was no longer such. Already in mid-April, Sofia Goggia and Marta Bassino had worked alone in the last meeting in mid-April in Livigno, then the last meetings in FISI and the definition of a new situation, just in the year that will lead to the Beijing Olympics . The winner of the 2019/2020 World Cup and that asterisk in the organic of the national teams, made official on Monday afternoon, immediately caused professionals and fans to discuss. “Dedicated program” for Federica Brignone, therefore; in essence, the Aosta Valley champion will train very often on an individual level, or rather a specific program will be organized with the possibility of working with foreign teams, but in any case the details are still being planned, including the training methods for the trip to Ushuaia. After the resignation in 2020, the blue (and the Azzurri) should regularly return to Argentina between the end of August and September. Another important change concerns the block of the sprinters of the men's team led by Alberto Ghidoni. No revolution, let's be clear, with Dominik Paris and Christof Innerhofer who remain the references of Group 1 of the World Cup, but will have "only" Emanuele Buzzi and Mattia Casse at their side who, for various reasons, are returning from a difficult season but both enjoy the utmost confidence of the technical staff. Group 2 was more full-bodied, in which Matteo Marsaglia and Alexander Prast were placed, last year with the "bigs" but definitely unlucky with the very serious injury (he who had a guaranteed permanent position in the CdM thanks to the results of the previous year in the European Cup) suffered in the first super-g of the season in Val d''Isère. For the young South Tyrolean the recovery will be really long, but more "calm" in the team that also counts on Florian Schieder, Pietro Zazzi, Guglielmo Bosca and Nicolò Molteni, while Davide Cazzaniga, one of the many blues who got hurt in the 2020 season / 21 (in that case in Kitzbuehel with the jumped crusader), remained out of the game.
