The distant Italgigante in Beaver Creek: De Aliprandini seeks a comeback from top ten, there are also Tonetti and Zingerle

The first round of Beaver Creek qualified only three Azzurri: good badiota, some regrets for Paris and Ballerin.

An uphill start, confirming the difficulties that the group of Roberto Saracco had already encountered in Soelden, despite the good 8th place of Luca De Aliprandini. The Italgigante male does not take off, with three qualified (on the eight athletes at the start) for the second run of the Beaver Creek race, but all very far from the positions that count; the best is still the Trentino, 15th at 1 "70 from the best time of Tommy Ford, but definitely not satisfied with his first race on the Birds of Prey. Manfred Moelgg was doing well, then came out before the final wall, while Riccardo Tonetti, 22nd, was saved, and the most important applause certainly goes to the badiota Hannes Zingerle, 29th with bib 48 and ready to play points in the second race scheduled at 8.45pm ( weather permitting). They did not instead hit the entrance in the 30 Dominik Paris, which really messed up and wasted a chance on a track that was also suitable for sprinters (and with lots of exits), as well as Andrea Ballerin, returning after a knee injury in mid-October, Simon Maurberger and Giulio Bosca.
