While the teammates took the flight to Lake Louise, in view of the first race set for Wednesday towards the opening of the World Cup season, the two excellent injured men of the blue speed group will finish the recovery work at Copper Mountain.
Let's talk about Christof Innerhofer and Matteo Marsaglia, forced to skip the stage in Alberta and eager to return next week to Beaver Creek. The times are tight, given that the first test on the Birds of Prey is set for Tuesday 3 December; "Inner" is getting better and better, and on the day of rest, he gave himself a tour between Las Vegas and a panoramic view of the wonder of the Grand Canyon. The 34-year-old from Gais should be able to make it to the track in the second round dedicated to speed in North America, while Marsaglia's situation is not at all simple.
There was talk of a "simple" distortion, but the 34-year-old native of Rome admitted that the injury he suffered at the ankle, during a training session after the first few days on the Copper Mountain, was quite serious.
"I'm still at Copper Mountain to slowly regain confidence in the snow - the words of the Piedmontese adzionc - A bad fall in super-g has caused me a serious distortion of the left ankle. I had to use crutches for a week, then lots of therapy, pool and gym. Now a little step at a time, with the aim and hope of recovering in time for my beloved Beaver Creek. "
Where in 2012 he won his first and only victory in the World Cup, taking the super-g on the "Birds of Prey", Marsaglia dreams of returning to begin to get serious in a season, the nth, born under a bad star.
