They are the blue "twins", the 2001 class that this year will be permanently in the giant team that will face all the World Cup races.
It was their first Soelden opening in their career and the reactions and sensations are a little different between Filippo Della Vite and Giovanni Franzoni, with the Bergamo rider very close to returning to the top 30 for the 2nd heat (he finished 34th, at 23 cents from Riccardo Tonetti), while the Brescian paid for the summer training revamped after the fractured collarbone remedied in July in Les Deux Alpes, closing away at 3 ”49.
“Qualifying was close at hand, I was slow in the upper part of the track - explains Della Vite - then I made a little mistake on the floor, I felt slow and therefore all these things cost me the qualification ( the last two partial ones were the decisive ones in the negative, ed). Now we are back to training for the next race, but I am still satisfied with how I skied and the road is the right one ”.
Franzoni is clear: “I went for a walk on the wall, I was in good shape but I totally miss the pace of the giant race, especially on ... the first lap. I tried to attack as hard as possible, but it wasn't really enough. On the steep it took me a lifetime to go down!
Obviously I'm not satisfied, but now I'm back to work even more convinced in view of the next races, which should be those of the European Cup at the end of November ”.
