Canada is really doing very well in the men's sector, both between the results of the World Cup and the Olympic Games with an amazing James Crawford, but also in many fast European Cup races with very interesting youngsters.
One of these is Cameron Alexander, born in 1997 who today in Kvitfjell obtained his first career victory at these levels, dominating the encore downhill on the historic Norwegian track. Yesterday it was a very tight race, today the Canadian talent has instead trimmed 36 cents to Josua Mettler and 38 to his compatriot Jeffrey Read, who left the winner of race-1 off the podium, the other Swiss Ralph Weber 4th at 68 cents.
And in fifth place (+ 0 "89 from Alexander), we find again an excellent Guglielmo Bosca who, after yesterday's third, confirms himself in the top five and is already daydreaming about the super-g on Friday, where the Italy will also focus strongly on Giovanni Franzoni, today 41st after the excellent first descent. Nicolò Molteni also did well, seventh behind the Swiss Lars Roesti, 14th Federico Simoni, 23rd Emanuele Buzzi who returned to the points, an area from which Cason (39th), Zazzi (43rd), Alliod (47th) were excluded , Franzoso (51st), Abbruzzese (53rd) and Talacci who closes the ranking.
