The return of Santa Caterina Valfurva to the World Cup was certainly put to the test, but the enormous amount of work carried out by the men led by Omar Galli and Tino Pietrogiovanna hit the mark.
The first of the two male giants planned for the weekend on the "Deborah Compagnoni" will be staged regularly, starting at 10.30 with the 1st heat designed by the Croatian Suman (the second at 13.30), despite the heavy snowfall of the last hours also in the Valtellina area. Over half a meter to be cleaned up all night and until the morning, when the athletes were allowed to carry out the reconnaissance without particular problems; Of course, the very hard base layer cannot be that of the last few days, but the show will be guaranteed for the second appointment between the wide doors after the opening, now 50 days ago, in Soelden.
Lucas Braathen won on the Rettenbach: bib n ° 8 for the terrible twenty year old from Norway, but it will be his compatriot Nestvold-Haugen to open the race with n ° 1, starting before Pinturault and the returning Odermatt. Watch out for Kristoffersen with the 7, but it promises to be a very open race.
First heat to be followed on NEVEITALIA, starting at 10.30 with the FIS live timing service.
