A world title awaited 19 years in this specialty, or rather from the triumph of Peter Fill on the snows of Tarvisio in 2002.
And the South Tyrolean champion, who has been supporting the Italian staff for a few months after hanging up his skis last season, is alongside Giovanni Franzoni in Bansko's world championship adventure. The junior world championships started with a bang in Italy, with the 2001 class from Brescia (who will turn twenty next March 30) to beat everyone in a thrilling super-g, with the first three enclosed in just 5 cents and Giovanni to treat himself, after his debut in the World Cup and at the (senior) World Championships in Cortina, the most beautiful satisfaction.
He was the main favorite, it was enough to look at the results obtained in the European Cup compared to rivals, but with the back problems he had had in recent weeks and the trip to Bansko which took place only a couple of days ago, also giving up the World Cup giants in the Bulgarian localities, left some doubts on the eve. "My goal for this year was precisely these world races and starting with a gold is really important - the declarations of the blue released to physi.org - It was hard because I made a lot of mistakes in the central a short race (less than 50 seconds, ed) so you had to try to push hard.
At the CdM finals I will make my debut in super-g (thanks to the pass dedicated to the world champion jr) and it is another great achievement ".
We then move on to thanks: "For all the staff because it was really a team result: physiotherapists and doctors who helped me after the problems I had in Cortina, my skiman, the technical director Massimo Carca, Fisi, the Fiamme Gialle , and Peter Fill who is here with me and has given me important advice.
In the next few days there are other races and I hope that my teammates can also do good results to bring home a good booty ”. Tomorrow in the giant, Franzoni himself and Della Vite will be among the main candidates for the medals, then Friday will end with the slalom.
