Second slalom of the European Cup, 24 hours after Obereggen, and it is a show in Pozza di Fassa in a first heat where the very young go wild, with a little surprise in front of the big favorite.
Halfway through the race on the "Aloch", the 21-year-old American Benjamin Ritchie is in the lead, reigning world champion of the discipline and able to precede Clément Noel by 6 cents, who chose this race before returning to the CdM for face the two giants in Alta Badia and, right here a year ago, he won on his part.
The French champion clearly remains the main candidate for success, for a second heat (scheduled for 1.00 pm) that promises battle not only between the first two of the ranking: another USA, Jett Seymour, is there just 12 cents from his compatriot, the yesterday's winner in Obereggen, the Norwegian Alexander Steen Olsen, 4th at + 0 ”27.
Then there is the void, with the German Ketterer at 77 cents, Popov at 81 and Tommaso Sala, best blue in seventh position, who pays 92, but in turn precedes athletes such as Marchant, Taylor, Salarich and Tremmel (yesterday 2nd in Obereggen). Tobias Kastlunger, 11th on the “Maierl”, is now 14th in the middle of the race (1 ”49 to be recovered), but the host Stefano Gross is bad, forced to come back from 21st position, with a 2” 44 lead.
