The usual challenging Gran Risa, Hirscher submits all his talent, mortgaging the sixth podium (on six technical races) seasonal. However, the victory will not be easy to achieve. As the Oreiller-Killy, in fact, Mathieu Faivre him at his heels: only 21 cents divide the only two that, on paper, will be played the first place.
The third fact is trailing by 81 cents, and the case of Florian Eisath. The South Tyrolean, after a start to the not exactly brilliant season, dispute a good test that allows him to beat giants of specialties such as Henrik Kristoffersen (fourth) and Felix Neureuther (fifth) and to be able to play the first podium of his career.
Disappointing by his standards, testing Alexis Pinturault, only seventh behind even Stefan Luitz, trailing by 1:12 from Hirscher. The provisional top ten is completed by Manuel Feller, eighth, Zan Kranjec, ninth, and Andre Myhrer, tenth.
Who will have to eat long hands is Philipp Schörghofer: Austrian presents last intermediate with the fastest time ever before committing a grave error on the second hump of the cat forced him to retire. Outside, among others, Ted Ligety.
As for other Azzurri qualify for the second run Aliprandini thirteenth De Luca, Roberto Nani fifteenth and nineteenth Manfred Mölgg, while it is at great risk Riccardo Tonetti, currently twenty-fifth 3 "29 release. We will keep you updated on those who have yet to come down.
