The layout will be entrusted to two Italian technicians, as Luis Prenn, at the helm of the Swiss, will draw the first heat, while Paolo Deflorian, who has been on the blue staff for years, will put down the second.
And there is a great desire for redemption in Italy, starting with Marta Bassino who left the scene in the first heat of race-1: bib n ° 2 for the Cuneo-based, immediately after Petra Vlhova who still caught the 1 and she will have to avoid falling into the pitfalls that cost her very heavy tenths this morning. With 3 here is Tessa Worley, fresh from fifth place, then Michelle Gisin again with 4 to look for another podium and Mikaela Shiffrin with the same 5 that brought her into triumph a few hours ago.
After the specialty and general leader, Federica Brignone to do much better than today's 7th place, with Sara Hector returning to the first sub-group and starting seventh. In the second step, Stephanie Brunner will still come out of the gate with 8, a great chance with 9 for Maryna Gasienica-Daniel, back from an excellent sixth place, then Nina O''Brien before Sofia Goggia, who had the lot 11 and will go into battle to seek at least the top ten area.
Mowinckel, Hrovat (released today, wasted the top 7 and caught the n ° 13), an increasingly brilliant Ramona Siebenhofer between wide doors and Holtmann will close at 3 pm, then Holdener, anything but on the ball in the first giant , and the 17th of Elena Curtoni, only 27th and with the desire to score heavy points like Karoline Pichler (comb 42), Roberta Melesi (45), Vivien Insam (55) and Ilaria Ghisalberti (58), who today are remained far from qualification.
Attention to Camille Rast's bib 27, simply extraordinary in the first appointment in Savoy, 9th with number 45, but also in Tviberg, Haaser, Frasse Sombet, Moltzan and Slokar who will start in series from 21 to 25.
