Filippo Della Vite surprised many, even if his first World Cup points finish had already arrived in Bansko last February, with the two performances on the most difficult track for the giant, the Gran Risa. Double qualification (always starting with bib around 50) within 24 hours in Alta Badia, the exit in the decisive heat of race-1 before taking the twentieth place, with the third time in the 2nd heat, last Monday in the rerun . Yet, the 2001 class from Bergamo has so much quality to field even in slalom, which will return to compete at a competitive level in the next few days, perhaps even trying to play a convocation in the discipline in CdM, given that in January only giants will be seen one, on 8 January in Adelboden. The youth technical director of the national team, Massimo Carca, has included Pippo among the eight athletes of team C who will take part in the two FIS slaloms, scheduled for Monday 27 (at night) and Tuesday 28 December on the French snows of Valmeinier. In Savoy, in addition to Della Vite, we will see Riccardo Allegrini, Marco Abbruzzese, Corrado Barbera, Gianlorenzo Di Paolo, Manuel Ploner, Edoardo Saracco and Lorenzo Thomas Bini.
