The blue slalom finally recovers Stefano Gross, who was unable to travel with his teammates to Ushuaia for training in winter conditions, but is fully respecting the timing after the operation on his right knee last March 23, which was necessary for the end of a season conditioned by the fraying of the cruciate ligament which prevented the 33-year-old from making his best, except for his debut in Finland. And just thinking of Levi, the first World Cup appointment for rapid gates and which is still almost two and a half months old, there is trust around a Gross man who will put his skis back on, after thousands of miles ground on his bike during the summer, from Wednesday to Friday on the snows of the Stelvio. Together with him, Christof Innerhofer will return on the glacier, the other man most awaited on the track after the knee operation (a joke of fate, a few hours before his national team-mate) last spring and already able to perform a few laps of the track in recent weeks. In recent days, "Inner" was planning another session of work with Raimund Plancker, but the difficult weather conditions at Stelvio had forced him to stop.
