A sensational comeback, to gain 19 positions, from 23rd to 4th, just one hundredth from his seventh podium in the European Cup, what would have been the second in giant after the place of honor in Zinal.
How much Giovanni Franzoni grows, capable even today in the anomalous race of Reiteralm (run between 42-43 seconds) to give a show: the first heat was not even bad, with "just" 87 cents behind the top and many rivals neighbors, and so the 2001 class from Brescia made the most of the second, placing the 2nd part time, to bring home a placement that is worth so much in terms of the general classification that Franzoni wants to win.
The Andorran Joan Verdu gives himself a fabulous hat-trick, after the two victories in December in Glungezer, making a real difference in the decisive heat, after finishing in 2nd place (9 cents from Lukas Feurstein, at the end 8th) halfway through the race: in second place, with a gap of 73 cents, is the Frenchman Loevan Parand, who precedes his compatriot Thomas Lardon by 8 cents, in turn with just one hundredth of a margin over Franzoni.
Fifth is the Japanese Wakatsuki, also the author of a super comeback (from 25th), the second blue in the standings is Riccardo Tonetti, tenth at 1 "02, while Hannes Zingerle recovers ten squares and is 13th, with Giovanni Borsotti who in turn he loses eleven, contenting himself with the 23rd final. Outside Alex Hofer (he was 13th halfway through the race), at home Italy he had disappointed Della Vite in the first, 60th and far from the zone points like Talacci, Canzio, Kastlunger and Bini.
