The most spectacular slalom of the circuit, in what is the great night on the Planai in Schladming, the scene of what for 25 years has been simply the "night race" for the white circus.
Sixth specialty race for the men's CdM, last appointment before Beijing (next weekend there are no tests on the calendar), tomorrow with the start of the first heat scheduled at 5.45 pm, on French layout, while the second will start at 8.45 pm and will have the design of Matteo Joris, Swiss-Ski technician from Valle d'Aosta.
It will be Manuel Feller, on his return after the positivity that forced him to skip Kitzbuehel, to inaugurate the match with the number 1, for an Austrian national team who instead has to renounce Michael Matt (among other things called up for the Olympic Games) stopped by Covid. With number 2 we find Henrik Kristoffersen, here already winner 4 times and, boosted by the podium last Saturday in comeback, ready to give himself a great race to get back in full fight for a totally open specialty cup, even if now commanded with a good margin by Lucas Braathen.
"Pinheiro", first and second in the last two slaloms, will have the number 12 having returned to the second sub-group, but well before him we will see if Clément Noel (bib 5) will return to the real one and not the messy one of the last races, as well as Foss- Solevaag (6) must forget Kitz's fork. And after Schwarz (7), the last winner on the Planai but when his form was decidedly superior, here is Pinturault with the 8 and we go up to Vinatzer with the 13.
Alex can and must realize his skiing at the highest level, seasoned by so many mistakes that have led him not to get on the podium yet for five races in the season. Two very dangerous men from Val Gardena will follow such as Dave Ryding, who triumphed two days ago on Ganslern, and Daniel Yule, then with 17 Giuliano Razzoli to dispel the Schladming taboo and obtain an important result also for the Olympics, since it would be essential to return in the second subgroup.
Manfred Moelgg, with the 20, finally wants to give himself a good race, Tommaso Sala (23) still dreams of the Olympic convocation, given that the FISI has postponed every decision for the men's sector to Tuesday, like Simon Maurberger who will start with the 28 on the track who two years ago saw him as an extraordinary protagonist (fifth), before getting injured in Chamonix. And finally, here is “Sabo” Gross (number 29), who is experiencing a very difficult season but sent a signal in Kitz at least in the first heat, and Hans Vaccari's return to the World Cup with bib n ° 64.
