Four blue qualified in Kranjska Gora. Brignone, third: "I stayed with... my feet on the ground"

With the Valle d'Aosta and Bassino, fourth at 24 cents from Grenier, also in Platino (for the first time in CdM), great 24th, and Zenere who will restart third in the 2nd round of the giant on Podkoren.

Four qualified blues, two in full swing for victory. A decidedly positive balance for the Italgigante, that of the first heat of "Kranjska Gora 1", the first appointment of the two consecutive between the wide gates on Podkoren. Federica Brignone, 3rd just 16 cents from Valérie Grenier, and Marta Bassino 4th (+ 0”24), make us dream once again but what Elisa Platino did is applause, hitting the second for the first time in her career (which will start at 12.30), with the Merano 24th with bib number 44, and the performance of Asja Zenere is also solid, 28th at 2"27 from the top and called to take advantage of the bib in the decisive run. “I managed to keep my feet on the ground – Brignone's words to the microphones of Rai Sport – Despite suffering some rebounds at the start, this time instead of blocking myself I managed to push, with a good final part and putting what that I expressed in training in Ravascletto”. Marta Bassino, looking for her seventh consecutive podium in giant to defend the specialty leadership, was amazing on the bumps of the central section, before giving up a little too much in the final. The Cuneo area, however, seems to have a decided margin: "We are all attached again, we can play it in the second heat - her words, again to the microphones of her colleague Simone Benzoni - Perhaps it was the most beautiful giant to ski in the season, the snow it is easy and to attack, without thinking too much about the lines”.
