In the fog of Panorama, the alpine skiing world championship dedicated to the junior world was launched and everything went according to predictions in the women's downhill, despite a race decidedly conditioned by the weather and interrupted several times. On the Canadian snow, comes the poker of Magdalena Egger, Austrian class 2001 who was three times gold at Narvik 2020 (winning downhill, super-g and combined) and was the great favorite of the eve, even if it was not for nothing simple to conquer the title of the queen discipline. An amazing Emma Aicher, who started last with bib 26, arrived at only 13 cents, recovering two tenths in the final stretch after having already impressed, she who in CdM has already shown super things, but in slalom (and let's talk about a class 2003 ...), in practice with the second time just behind Egger. Then the 2002 classes Lauren Macuga, an American already seen in the season at the World Cup debut in Lake Louise, bronze with 25 cents behind, and Delia Durrer mocked and fourth at + 0 ”27, with the Swiss talent just a few days away ago from the first podiums in the European Cup. The Czech Alena Labastova is fifth with 6 tenths of a delay, ex aequo to the first of the daughters of art in the standings, that Lisa Nyberg (2002 heir to the great Fredrik) who has already won in the European Cup, in giant. Seventh then there is Amanda Salzgeber, one second away, while to complete the top ten, preceded also by the third and fourth Austrian, Victoria Olivier and Viktoria Buergler, here is Vicky Bernardi. Tenth position, 1 ”49 from the winner, for the 19 year old from Badia, while the second blue in the race, Alice Calaba, was thirteenth (+ 2” 05). Delayed start for the men's downhill, where above all Giovanni Franzoni (bib 7) is definitely aiming high, compared to 19.00 Italian time, given the weather situation and the delays in the women's race.
