In the hunt for poker in five specialty competitions, exactly as done by Marta Bassino in giant.
This is Sofia Goggia's only goal for the descent number 2 in Crans-Montana, scheduled for Saturday (10.00, with live TV on Eurosport and Rai Sport) after the triumphal start of the triptych on Mont Lachaux by the Bergamo, winner also in today's substantially shortened race. Tomorrow, even if the weather promises some snow until the morning and with the hope that there is no wind that conditioned the first descent, the Olympic champion could already put a serious mortgage on the specialty cup and, given who has already done well today, has once again chosen bib number 9 for the fifth round of the discipline.
Corinne Suter, the great disappointment of the first round on the home snow, opted instead for 17, with Ester Ledecka, second today, who will start shortly before the blue with the number 7. Who instead will try at the start of the race, after Stuhec and Venier (crash, but the Austrian is fine), it was Federica Brignone who had to "settle" for number 3. After Goggia we will see Lie, Tippler and then Johnson, the only one always on the downhill podium like Goggia (who, however, won three races and took a 2nd place against four thirds of the American), since she is registered with the number 12 Marta Bassino, but the Cuneo-based confirmed in the afternoon that she will not start.
And so there will be seven blue in the race, with Francesca Marsaglia (bib 14) to redeem herself after today's exit), Elena Curtoni with 19 and Laura Pirovano with 20 to aim for at least the top ten, now conquered for the first time in the World Cup by Nadia Delago, who will come out of the gate on Saturday with the number 29. Finally Roberta Melesi, starting next to last with the 49.
Looking at the bibs of the big names, pay attention to the series from 15 to 18 with Lara Gut-Behrami, Vlhova (great fourth today, can earn other heavy points considering her feeling with Crans-Montana), Suter herself and then Michelle Gisin, who does not on the other hand, he seems at ease on this track.
