European Cup: Canada again in Saalbach, without Crawford here is Jeffrey Read. Faith Simoni in the 15

In the second descent in Austria, the North Americans win again and again with 3 athletes in the first 4 places (with Kryenbuehl great 2nd). The Aosta Valley partly saves the blue balance, far away Zazzi, Bosca, Buzzi and Molteni.

Saalbach-Hinterglemm is a ... Canadian fiefdom. Even the bis descent on the Zwoelferkogel, sees an authentic domination of the young North Americans, even without James Crawford, winner yesterday for a cent over Yannick Chabloz (out), today absent in the second speed round as regards the men's European Cup. This time Jeffrey Read rejoices, third in race-1 just 6 cents behind his teammate, and the success of the '97 class is really clear (he too at the first hurray at continental level), who trims 52 cents to Urs Kryenbuehl, back on the podium one year after the terrible injury in Kitzbuehel and after a complicated return to CdM. Three tenths from the Swiss, there is still a lot of maple leaf with Cameron Alexander third and Broderick Thompson, the only veteran among the talents of the new Canadian generation, fourth just a cent behind the young compatriot. Pfiffner then follows a disappointed Austria with Schuetter sixth and Krenn seventh, ahead of Roesti and Seger (still Canada), eighth ex aequo, while Italy still suffers more than the first descent, and only Federico Simoni is placed in the 15. In the end, the Aosta Valley player will be 13th at 1 ”22, much further away are the other blues on which he was aiming strongly, from Pietro Zazzi 26th to Guglielmo Bosca 30th, with Nicolò Molteni 33rd, Matteo Franzoso 40th, Mattia Cason 42nd , Emanuele Buzzi 44th, Giovanni Franzoni 46th.
