Finally Kitzbuehel. Between Covid chaos, with the cancellation of the two slaloms that had been rescheduled on the Ganslern for the outbreak in Jochberg and the positivity of the big boss of the men's cup, Markus Waldner, and the problems related to the weather since it really snowed a lot and working hard on the Streif, choosing not to have the first test scheduled for today take place as a precaution, the location that symbolizes the winter season is still ready.
Wednesday begins with five days on the queen track, for the first of the two tests to precede the double descent scheduled at 11.30 on Friday and Saturday, before the super-g on Sunday. There will be no Kilde and Mauro Caviezel, two highly anticipated protagonists especially in super-g, as well as the long-term injured Thomas Dressen, who won the descent on the Streif in 2018, and not even Adrian Smiseth Sejersted who, in the best moment of his career , he had to stop for a knee problem accused after Bormio.
Instead, Christof Innerhofer will be there, after the "case" linked to an alleged positivity to Covid: there was talk of isolation after the races and training after Bormio, the fact is that the last PCR test was negative and he arrived '' ok for getting around Kitzbuehel. The 36-year-old from South Tyrol is registered for tomorrow's race (with bib number 6), although he could only participate in Thursday's. With number 7, however, Wednesday will be a special day for Dominik Paris, back on "his" track (together with Bormio ...), where he triumphed three times in downhill and once in super-g, a year later the injury to the crusader that deprived him of the Kitz races last season, in full battle for the World Cup of discipline and more.
It will be Urs Kryenbuehl to open the first test, they have chosen high bibs Matthias Mayer, winner in office in Kitz and also triumph in the last downhill disputed in Bormio, which will start with 17, and Beat Feuz with 19, while we will see Ryan Cochran -Siegle, in sensational form with the first career victory in the super-g over the Stelvio, with the number 13.
Seven blues at the start: in addition to Innerhofer and Paris, here is Marsaglia with 21, Buzzi with 33, Cazzaniga (41), Schieder (55) and Pietro Zazzi with bib 57 for his first confrontation with Streif.
