A crazy second heat, at full throttle, by Alex Vinatzer.
It was not him in the first of a slalom in Adelboden who risked seeing each other from the hotel, with the qualification caught by a whisker. He had promised to change gears for the decisive run and he did it all right, the Val Gardena champion who gave him a day to remember on the Chuenisbargli, even if in the end he got "only" a 7th place (with an important value but also from a specialty cup perspective, considering all the mistakes of the other big names).
The error on the final wall cost at least 7 tenths, just those missed to reach the time then set by the winner, Johannes Strolz, but this is Vinatzer. Take or leave. "I saw the first one again and I looked like a tourist - Alex commented with the usual frankness on Ettore Giovannelli's microphone after his second heat - I told myself to attack and I'm sorry for the final mistake, which cost me 6-7 tenths . Let's try to improve ourselves now for the next ones, doing a full level race ”.
Giuliano Razzoli took another top ten, after the 9th and 7th of Val d''Isère and Campiglio, keeping the same place after the 1st heat. Also in this case there may be some small regrets, given that up to the last intermediate, the specialist from Emilia was also in the race for the podium, but considering that the "Rocket" resumed training practically only yesterday, after the back pain , that's okay. “I am very happy - he admits, already knowing that the pass for the Beijing Games is approaching - I was stopped by Campiglio and I did not think I would be competitive immediately, in the final I think I accused the lack of training.
