The blues in fact since 1985, when inaugurate it on the highest step of the podium was the greatest of all, Ingemar Stenmark, today they got fewer than 22 podiums including nine wins thanks to the bottom of steep and almost always hard, which enhances the their proverbial features. Not only that, the only two times that the competition was held among women won two blue, Sabina Panzanini in 1994 and Denise Karbon in 2003. The king of the Gran Risa course is Alberto Tomba with four wins and eight podiums in total, of which the first step on the middle of the historic hat-trick 27 years ago with Richard Oswald Tötsch Pramotton first and third. It "protects" even Max Blardone with three hits, such as Finnish Kalle Palander here that has won three of his four giants of the World Cup. Davide Simoncelli however, in addition to the success of 2003, can boast four second places, two of them behind Blardone. DI followed all the podiums of the giant Alta Badia. 15.12.1985 1.
