No Covid alarm for the Norwegian, as NRK reports. Kjetil will not compete in the Bormio descent, betting everything on his favorite race (where the chances for the cup are played), brought forward to Monday. Also in the pits Nils Alphand.

Today's test on the Stelvio, as expected, made more than one of the protagonists of the fast races in Bormio run shivering.
Fortunately for Guglielmo Bosca who fell without consequences, the same goes for Brice Roger, who ended his 2019/2020 season right here, in the second descent 12 months ago; a few blows, on the other hand, accused Nils Alphand who was not registered for the second test scheduled for Sunday (again at 11.30), where we also find Kjetil Jansrud with bib 17.
The veteran of the Norwegian team, however, has already decided not to compete downhill. Today, in fact, Jansrud did not start due to a slight indisposition, but it was immediately ruled out that it is a problem linked to Covid; as NRK reports, the choice is to preserve himself for the most important race of his two days, or the super-g which, just this afternoon, was brought forward to Monday. It is there that the downhill world champion will play for heavy points in the specialty cup, where he sails 80 points behind Mauro Caviezel after the third place obtained in Gardena (also followed by the nice 4th place in the downhill).
It must also be said that Kjetil has never had a great feeling in recent years with the Bormio descent, to put it mildly, so the renunciation becomes much less painful even if, new competition program in hand, will come after the super-g . It will therefore only be Aleksander Aamodt Kilde, clearly among the big favorites, and Adrian Smiseth Sejersted, who will defend the Norwegian colors in the third specialty of the season.
