The Bormio descent rewards the world champion, who beats Crawford and the specialty leader, while Casse is the best blue just ahead of the King of the Stelvio, who is back in the top ten but is really too far on his track.

A painting on the Stelvio, that of a dreamy Vincent... Kriechmayr, for the first victory in Bormio of the downhill world champion, who conquers the fifth specialty race dominating, from the first to the last metre, on the most demanding track of the circuit.
Fourteenth scream in CdM, seventh in downhill and second of the season after the sprint race on the Saslong; beaten by 4 tenths a James Crawford who had already been practically perfect on his own, risking everything to come close to his first success (it is the third podium for the Canadian).
At + 0"68 here is the first podium in Bormio, even if the favorite of the eve, Aleksander Aamodt Kilde could be considered who in any case takes 60 heavy points to strengthen his red bib, putting himself behind Marco Odermatt by 8 tenths , partly disappointing with many messes in the upper part, before containing and finishing fourth anyway, 1”46 behind Kriechmayr.
And behind Ryan Cochran-Siegle, who rediscovers a certain feeling on his favorite track and is a good fifth, there is a bit of blue, albeit without a podium that remains more than a second and a half away: the best is Mattia Casse , 6th at 2"24, 5 cents better than Dominik Paris, who finds the first top ten of the season, but it's not him since the attitude was submissive, in conditions where he always exalted himself, asking the descent six times of the Stelvio, and the delay paid by the winner the beauty of 2”29.
