The show of the Women's World Cup is again, and it can be said finally, reality. Eight years after the fast races of January 2013, a splendid track such as the “Karl Schranz” returns to host the top circuit and for all (or almost all) of the great protagonists it is an absolute novelty.
Also for this reason, the two tests scheduled for Thursday and Friday will be fundamental, in view of Saturday's descent that will anticipate the super-g on Sunday, in what is the second appointment with speed after Val d''Isère.
Sofia Goggia will present herself as leader of the discipline in queen, red bib in cohabitation with Corinne Suter, and dcmani will come out of the gate in the first training (always fixed at 11.45) with bib n ° 11, while the Swiss will have the 9. It will be immediately interesting to see Ester Ledecka, super-g winner on Oreiller-Killy, with number 1 and followed by Marta Bassino, Elena Curtoni and Francesca Marsaglia from bib 2 to 4.
Petra Vlhova (tomorrow on the track with 8) will defend the cup leadership from the attacks of Michelle Gisin (n ° 12) and from the blue including Federica Brignone, who will try to find herself after the double zero in Val d''Isère (continuation from the splendid 3rd place in super-g) even downhill. Bib 13 for the Aosta Valley tomorrow, with a lot of Austria to follow in what will be the home races, obviously without Schmidhofer but with Siebenhofer, Tippler, Ortlieb and Venier aiming to do well, as well as Breezy Johnson to repeat himself after the double podium in France.
A total of eight blue on the track: Nadia Delago will start with 24 in the first round, Laura Pirovano with 28 and Roberta Melesi with 51, among the 53 athletes registered where, we remind you, Mikaela Shiffrin does not figure, who will postpone her return to the fast disciplines.
