Third day of training and a good job dedicated to the giant, for the Italian national team which, since the beginning of the week, is in Cortina with a double chance. Testing the Olympia delle Tofane, which will host almost all the world championships from 8 February (with the exception of Druscié A where the slalom will be staged), as there is no scheduled World Cup stage, and preparing in ideal conditions for the two giants of the weekend in Kranjska Gora.
Saturday the fourth specialty appointment on the "Podkoren", with the first heat at 11.00 and the second at 14.00, Sunday the encore (9.15-12.15) for two crucial challenges in the context of the World Cup of discipline, led by Federica Brignone in front of Marta Bassino, but also for the general since there is the possibility of shortening on Vlhova, Gisin and Shiffrin.
After the races in Slovenia we will go to Crans-Montana for the speed triptych on Mont Lachaux, from Friday 22 to Sunday 24 January with two descents and a super-g, but some concerns about the smooth running of the Swiss stage exist. The incidence rate per thousand inhabitants for Covid positivity is in fact the highest in the French-speaking Valais, but the head of the organizing committee, Marius Robyr, reassured the situation.
Meanwhile, the two women's European Cup descents are scheduled for the weekend, but the tests have already been moved directly to Saturday, in this case due to problems related to the weather as a lot of snow is falling in the canton of Valais.
