Sunday (11 am) the quick test with "Domme" called immediately to make the void before the slalom. The Frenchman in the race despite the adductor problems, instead waives Schwarz.

And go combined, the first of the season and the debut with the new formula, the one that does not include the reversal of the first 30 after the quick test, thus maintaining the result of the first 30 of the super-g as an order also for the slalom run.
A precise choice to rebalance towards sprinters a discipline that seemed now dead and that the FIS wanted to relaunch; in Bormio we will see its first effects, with a super-g as tough as the one on the Stelvio scheduled at 11.00, albeit on a shortened track and probably around a 1''20 "race, starting substantially from the Pian dell '' area. Orso, just above the Carcentina. The slalom race, scheduled at 2.00 pm, will be quite short as happened in past years (about 45 â€) and on a slope far from impossible for jet men.
Like Dominik Paris, who among the rapid gates still manages to get by and will try to blow up the bank even in the combined, after the wonderful one-two downhill; the World Cup leader will start from the super-g starting gate with the bib number 6, just before the favorite par excellence in this specialty, an Alexis Pinturault who arrives in Valtellina after the injury (injury to the left thigh adductor) suffered in the parallel giant last Monday in Alta Badia.
Marco Schwarz, another pure specialist who had zero speed training after his injury last February, gave up after the last training sessions, and here everything is very open for the podium (but perhaps also for the victory). Kriechmayr could play it, as well as Kilde and Mayer, but also technical skiers from Murisier to the Hadalin world silver up to Muffat-Jeandet. Six blues in the race: in addition to Paris, bib number 11 for Riccardo Tonetti, then we will see Guglielmo Bosca with 32, Alexander Prast with 37, followed by Mattia Casse with 38 and Florian Schieder with 42 on the 50 athletes in the race.

Si ritira a soli 24 anni Alice Calaba, tormentata dagli infortuni dopo il bronzo mondiale jr: Lo sci è diventato parte di me
La velocista valdostana ha ufficialmente salutato l'agonismo, lei che era rientrata a livello FIS nell'ultimo inverno, dopo oltre due anni e mezzo ai box, causa i guai alle ginocchia, da quel 2023 che le aveva inizialmente regalato il podio in super-g ai campionati del mondo juniores di St. Anton, dove fu pure 5^ in discesa.
