Just 13 cents from the podium, the only athlete without a red and white flag in the top ten: we are talking about Roberta Melesi, excellent sixth after having won the best race in the World Cup just a few days ago in the same discipline, with the Lecco precedes Groebli, Absmann, Good and Maier. Carlotta Da Canal's 12th place is also very good (at 1 "56 from Gritsch), a few hundredths ahead of Valentina Cillara Rossi, 14th, and Karoline Pichler 15th, Giulia Albano and Ilaria Ghisalberti also scored (19th ex aequo ), as well as Monica Zanoner who finished twenty-first. Friday bis race, always starting at 10.00. MALE GIANT DELETED Nothing to do, in Reiteralm, for the first of the two male giants of the European Cup scheduled between today and tomorrow. The cancellation arrived well before the start scheduled for the 1st heat at 10.30: it will try again on Friday, with a lot of quality blue on the track as Giovanni Franzoni, who for today's race would have started with bib number 3, is aiming decidedly for podium and at the top of the general, but many athletes of the CdM group are also registered, from Simon Maurberger to Giovanni Borsotti, with the same Tonetti, Zingerle and Hofer expected protagonists such as Della Vite.
