Goggia's thoughts after the tests: "I'm far from the best condition". The 9 blue for the Crans-Montana slopes

Saturday and Sunday a double crucial appointment for the crystal ball, Sofia does not feel at the top. Melesi will remain out, World Cup debut for Dolmen and Zanoner.

Two tests with some certainty, such as the speed of Mowinckel and Haehlen above all, but also many doubts left by the timed tests on Mont Lachaux, in view of the Saturday and Sunday descents in Crans-Montana. Doubts that Sofia Goggia also has, eighth time in today's training shortened by about twenty seconds, but with a triple jump goal and a condition that the Bergamo rider considers far from her best. With 69 points to defend on Corinne Suter to win the third career descent World Cup, you can't rest easy. “I missed the first jump and I ended up long on a door, then I stiffened a bit and it took me a few turns to find the rhythm, on a track that looks a lot like a supergiant - Sofia's words to phi. org - I am certainly not in the physical condition of the beginning of the season, in some ways from a mental point of view it is more difficult to approach these two cup descents, rather than an Olympic descent. The goal for the weekend is to defend the leader's bib in the specialty, Suter remains very dangerous ”. There will be nine blue at the gate tomorrow (start at 10.30) and the excluded after rehearsal is Roberta Melesi, who will therefore leave room for Elena Dolmen and Monica Zanoner's absolute debut in CdM. In addition to the Venetian and Trentino, there will therefore be Goggia, Brignone, Nadia Delago, Marsaglia, Curtoni, Nicol Delago and Pichler.
