With the cancellation of the European Cup descent Franzoni's plans change: "I'll go to Lenzerheide"

Case solved due to ... fog. That's right, the cancellation of the last descent of the European Cup season, which should have taken place this morning in Saalbach-Hinterglemm, led Giovanni Franzoni to decide between the continental circuit and the World Cup, preferring the latter. . The new junior super-g world champion, in fact, has in his pocket the pass for the super-g of the Lenzerheide finals, scheduled for 18 March, the same day as the final giant of the European Cup, on the snow of Reiteralm. Without today's descent, however, the 19-year-old from Brescia feels cut off from the game for the goal of the final podium in the general classification (he is sixth at 125 points from the duo made up of Weber and Raschner), and so he dissolved his reserves by deciding to debut in CdM also in super-g. "With tomorrow's super-g only (Saturday, ed) I no longer have the chance to aim for the podium of the European Cup general - Giovanni's words through the press office of Energiapura - At the same time I am very happy to go to the finals of the World Cup in Lenzerheide, as a new junior world champion. I want to end this season with a flourish, which has been fantastic, even if I had a few too many ailments, but you know that every now and then they have to be taken into account. A super final in the World Cup would be a flywheel to launch me for next season ”.
