The Val Gardena, 13th in the parallel of Lech / Zuers: "The challenge with Read was feasible, too bad because expectations had risen after the qualification".

A discreet placement, also because we are not talking about his specialty, which will have its opening in just under a month, with the slalom on 12 December on the Face de Bellevarde in Val d''Isère.
For Alex Vinatzer, however, the thirteenth place obtained today in Lech / Zuers is not enough, in the only parallel of a CdM season that the young blue had already started in Soelden, making his giant debut. “Qualifying for the round of 16 was the finish line in the morning - said the Val Gardese after the race - because you never know how it can end up in parallel.
Clearly then the expectations had risen a bit and I could have won in the round of 16 against Read, because I made two mistakes and yet I still came close. The snow was a little different than this morning, but I'm not looking for excuses, I should have just won. In the first run I made a mistake at the top and in the second at the bottom. I had a great experience, it will be for the next one ".
