It is always him, the leader of the classification of specialties and revelation of the season, to command the dances.
Billy Major is ahead of everyone even after the first run of the Oberjoch slalom, the only European Cup event on the German snows after the cancellation of what yesterday should have been the first race.
The Briton made the difference with bib n ° 1, on a very tough track that derailed three of the expected protagonists, namely Major's compatriot, Laurie Taylor, the American Benjamin Ritchie and unfortunately also Tommaso Sala himself, back from two excellent races in Meiringen-Hasliberg. And so in second place, just 14 cents from the top, there is another young man like the Frenchman Theo Letitre, while Christian Hirschbuehl (constantly in CdM) is third at 51 cents.
Behind Tremmel, fourth at 8 tenths, and Nordbotten, fifth at 1 "07, but also Himmelsbach and Seymour, here is Tobias Kastlunger who suffers a bit in this first heat, but still finishes in the top ten with 1" 44 of posting. For the podium dream it will be tough, but we can recover.
While waiting for the other Azzurri at the start with high bibs, the appointment with the second heat is already set at 11.15.
