The second descent of the European Cup in Santa Caterina Valfurva is also speaking Swiss again, with the “Deborah Compagnoni” fiefdom of the Red Cross team who showed up at the speed opening with many high-level athletes.
Yannick Chabloz had won yesterday, today the ''98 class Josua Mettler took care of signing an encore for the Swiss, winning the second victory in the continental circuit (the first downhill); 5 cents were enough to overtake Marco Pfiffner, second again as in race-1, and fellow countryman Ralph Weber, ex aequo on the second place after the third place 24 hours earlier.
Then there is the void, with very short gaps from 4th place down: Roulin and Monney, still Switzerland, are respectively 4th and 5th at 42 and 43 cents, with the Norwegian Fossland ex aequo with the latter. And at just 46 cents, here is the seventh place of Pietro Zazzi (who was 4th in Santa Caterina in 2020), on a par with the Austrian Neumayer and the winner of the first race Chabloz.
The other blues: Guglielmo Bosca finished 13th, 57 cents from the winner, Nicolò Molteni 14th at 61, while Franzoso finished 26th and Simoni 29th. On Monday the end of the long appointment in Valtellina with the third super-g of the European Cup: the first ones were won by Franzoso and Franzoni, with the Brescia player (fresh from the CdM giant in Val d''Isère) who will return to the race just tomorrow to defend the overall leadership, which remained his with a 10-point margin over Pfiffner.
