Two quality workouts, just back from Levi. Diavolezza, the Swiss town just beyond the border, welcomed the Azzurri groups in preparation for the parallels of Lech / Zuers.
In the women's test scheduled for tomorrow, nine Italians will be looking for an important result, in a single test (apart from the World Cup) for this season, but which is still giving away its heavy points for the World Cup. Not surprisingly, the girls from Rulfi have been preparing the Austrian PGS for weeks, also working on it in the meetings in Val Senales.
Finishing this morning, then the transfer to the Vorarlberg area; Federica Brignone tells us on the eve of Italy, after leaving Levi's two slaloms without much satisfaction (a "zero" and a 24th place) and eager to play something important, she who concluded in the last PGS in Sestriere in 4th place, eliminated only in the semifinals by Marta Bassino (then third behind Direz and Moerzinger).
On Tuesday, on the first day in Diavolezza, the Aosta Valley woman also met her former colleague and her great friend Lisa Agerer on the track: "They were two days of good specific training, but not with the one-to-one challenge as it will be in the race - says Federica - Too risky in training, because it often happens to go out and therefore it is better to avoid. Discipline is a direct, brief challenge that pleases the public.
Honestly, if I think about specialties like downhill, super-g and giant, we are talking about another thing. Let's say that the parallel is more like a game, in which however the departure counts a lot and you have to be very present right away, because there is no margin to make mistakes ".
With Brignone, we remember that, tomorrow morning in the qualification scheduled from 10.00, Sofia Goggia, Marta Bassino, Martina Peterlini, Lara Della Mea, Marta Rossetti, Laura Pirovano, Roberta Melesi and Nicol Delago will also be on the track.

Scheib rientra in Europa dopo 29 giorni tra Argentina e Cile: Un lavoro molto buono. Sarà lei la favorita a Soelden
La detentrice della Coppa del Mondo di gigante, che proprio dall'opening sul Rettenbach ha iniziato a costruire lo scorso anno quel trionfo, ha diviso a metà il lavoro tra focus sulla sua disciplina a Ushuaia e poi velocità sulle nevi cilene pensando al super-g. Rifinitura a Pitztal e poi direttamente a Soelden, il set-up finale lo definiremo in quel momento.
