Tomorrow at 10.00 off to the qualifications, with the best 16 in the final phase from 14.00 (crossed with women): De Aliprandini, Borsotti, Tonetti and Franzoni the Italian cards, all with fairly high bibs. There will be no Pinturault and Kristoffersen.

The start at 10.00 with the qualifiers, one hour after the girls' dry run.
The same regulation, of course, also for the men's parallel of these world championships in Cortina, with the best 16 of the 48 athletes at the start who will pass the cut to access the final phase, always scheduled at 14.00 but in the Rumerlo area.
If in the female sector there is some reference in terms of the values of the discipline, among boys it is really difficult to indicate the favorites; among other things there will not even be the finalists of the only seasonal race in Lech / Zuers, namely Alexis Pinturault and Henrik Kristoffersen, with Germany (which so far has already brought home 3 silvers in this world championship) to open first on the red track with Alexander Schmid, already twice on the podium in CdM in this format, then on the blue one with Stefan Luitz.
It will not be easy for the Azzurri also for the starting bibs (also considering the previous steps of the women), with Luca De Aliprandini, Giovanni Borsotti and Riccardo Tonetti protagonists on the blue track of the qualifications, while Giovanni Franzoni, in his second world race after the combined today, will be the third last to go down on red.
"The format is totally different and it is therefore difficult to say what to expect from this race - said De Aliprandini tonight at" Casa Italia Collection - FISI "- There will be two different tracks and the certainty is that a lot of determination will be needed immediately in qualifying. , we start from scratch and everything is possible.
In any case, I'm fine, we gigantists haven't competed for a long time (9 January in Adelboden, ed), but the World Cup at home represents a fantastic opportunity that I want to seize. I've always been inconsistent in this discipline, but it all depends on the track and the snow; it is really too difficult to indicate a goal for tomorrow's race, but I can't wait to leave ”.
