With more than three hours late, but we will start in Crans-Montana for the fourth women's downhill of the World Cup season, starting at 1.15 pm after the night's rainfall had brought 15-20 cm of fresh snow onto the track, impossible to be moved in time for the original scheduled start at 10.00.
In the morning the sky opened, but then the wind came to complicate the plans, with the race jury who decided to lower the start to the height of the super-g, effectively removing the first five doors. Tamara Tippler will come out of the gate with number 1, followed by Michelle Gisin, with Ledecka (5) and Suter with 7 who could be the first real reference of the race.
First of the two Crans-Montana descents that you can follow on NEVEITALIA, starting at 1.15 pm with the FIS live timing service.

There are eight blue at the starting gate on the Mont Lachaux track. The first at via Francesca Marsaglia, bib n ° 6, then the main favorite and specialty leader (and winner here in 2019), that Sofia Goggia who aims for the seasonal trio in descent and has chosen the number 9. Marta Bassino will immediately follow her with 10, even if the Cuneo woman does not have too many expectations for this race, after having played only yesterday's training in a calm manner.
And then in series here is Curtoni with 17, Pirovano with 18 and Brignone with 19, all three with important ambitions. Finally Nadia Delago, very fast in practice, with 22 and Roberta Melesi with bib 50.
