A day that he will not be able to forget, still in his country, eight months after the world magic of Cortina.
Another second place with an enormous weight, the one that Luca De Aliprandini conquered today in the temple of the giant, the Gran Risa which hosted the third and fourth specialty rounds within 24 hours. Fifth yesterday, today the Trentino player crowned a very long chase, the one on the first podium in the World Cup.
Only Marco Odermatt was able to keep up with him, but what a feat for the blue who has now been the point of reference for years for a team that has suffered a lot, but has found a true leader, in full maturity. Five years after the last podium of the giant national team, always on the Gran Risa with the third place that conquered (definitely surprisingly) Florian Eisath, here is De Aliprandini.
Deserved, highly deserved: "The first goal of this season was to be constant, because when you are always there to play it, sooner or later it arrives - explained Luca to Rai Sport microphones, with the usual clarity - In the first heat I skied very hard, in the second I used my head more, it banged a lot and it was difficult, but I knew I had an advantage and I tried not to make mistakes. A turning point? More than anything else a confirmation and an award ".
