The conditions are ok on the "Kandahar 1": at 11.30 the Garmisch descent starts, 7 blue in the race

We start from the top, after yesterday's shortened stage due to wind: Nadia Delago with 5 to try, then the favorites Suter, Weidle, Siebenhofer and Puchner, with Curtoni (17), Brignone (19) and Nicol Delago (20) to try at least a good place without the Goggia lighthouse.

It is the descent of absences, not surprisingly it is the last one before the Olympic Games and Garmisch-Partenkirchen, for various reasons, really lacks the best of the discipline (and in part it will be the same for the super-g). At 11.30 the start of the sixth round of the season, on the "Kandahar 1" which is in better conditions than yesterday, without the wind that had forced to shorten the second test. Sofia Goggia and her red bib are missing, which will remain such given the advantage over the first pursuers, the other luxury injured Breezy Johnson, but also Gut-Behrami, Gisin, Ledecka, Mowinckel, Bassino and the first two of the general classification of the World Cup, Mikaela Shiffrin and Petra Vlhova. Corinne Suter, who will start seventh, is one of the points of reference and is looking for the first success of the season, like Kira Weidle (n ° 9), Ramona Siebenhofer (13) and Mirjam Puchner (15); before them, Nadia Delago will be at the start with 5. Not easy for the podium dream, after what we saw in the two days of testing, but the ''97 class of Val Gardena seems to be the best card to play at least the top ten, considering that Elena Curtoni (17) and Federica Brignone (19), regularly at the start after skipping training on Friday, could suffer a lot in the central section where, instead, Nicol Delago, who caught the number 20, will have to earn as much as possible.

Suedtirol Skiroll Festival: Graz beffa Korostelev e Barp nella 10 km TC. Gismondi supera Nepryaeva e De Martin Pinter

In Val Pusteria sono andate in scena due giornate della versione estiva dello sci di fondo, con Marco Pinzani e Federica Cassol che hanno tronfato nella sprint del sabato sull'asfalto di Anterselva. A Dobbiaco, invece, le 10 km in alternato hanno regalato il successo a Davide Graz e Maria Gismondi, all'interno della cornice della Nordic Arena per quella che è stata la prima tappa della Coppa Italia invernale.
