It is an Italy immediately on the ball, the one that appears on the snow of Orcières for a triptych of fast races, fundamental in the European Cup season.
The leader of the downhill specialty classification, Davide Cazzaniga busy in Kitzbuehel, is missing, but in the first of the two tests (Thursday the second) was Alexander Prast to sign the best time. The blue, already winner this year in the Zinal super-g, placed ahead of Nils Alphand (2 tenths away) and the Austrian Niklas Koeck, two of the likely rivals in the descents scheduled on Friday and Saturday in the locations in the French Alps (Sunday there will be a super-g).
The Swiss who had been so frightening in Wengen (with Cazzaniga-Battilani double in the second descent), Weber and Rogentin in particular, are busy in Kitz and there is room to get very heavy points for other blues too. Like Matteo Franzoso, great 10th in this first race, and Florian Schieder who finished 11th, followed by Giovanni Franzoni (14th) and in the 30th by Zazzi, Vaghi and Simoni, while Henri Battilani finished 33rd, but he is one of the most anticipated men in view of the races.
