The exit of Alex Hofer, who will thus lose the leadership of the specialty ranking, and a good 7th time for Giovanni Franzoni in Italy, after the first heat of the giant number 1 (Sunday the encore) of the European Cup on snows of Berchtesgaden.
Waiting for the second scheduled at 13, then the Austrian Dominik Raschner commands, but the main favorites are really close, starting with Timon Haugan (who on the eve shared the leadership of specialties with Hofer, after the two podiums with victory in Folgaria) who is second at 18 hundredths behind, one better than Stefan Brennsteiner and with Semyel Bissig, who had dominated the first giant on the “Salizzona” last Tuesday, fourth at 25 cents from the leader.
Short ranking in front, with the Dutch Meiners 5th at 32 cents ahead of the German Gratz and the pair formed by the rossocrociato Noger and Giovanni Franzoni, who after the difficulties of Folgaria finds a good heat and is there, 57 cents from Raschner.
The other Azzurri in the top 30 are Hannes Zingerle, 11th at + 0 ”94, while Filippo Della Vite (4th in the last race in Folgaria and with great confidence) will restart from 16th position, only 1” 14 from the top. And then again Pietro Canzio, really good with bib 29 to enter 18th (+1 ”39) and Tommaso Sala 21st at 1” 44, while they will take part in the second heat starting again after the thirty Canins, Sorio, Zuccarini and Bendotti.
