McGrath the favorite for gold in the combined after the slalom, but the blues are l thinking about the super-g

Junior World Championships in Narvik: program turned upside down due to the wind, the men's race will end tomorrow with the heats of speed and Franzoso and Franzoni are not too far away. Around 2.30 pm the decisive slalom for the combined women.

A slalom race that keeps everything open in the medal race, for a men's combined in the Narvik junior world championship, literally distorted by the weather that had already conditioned the female super-g. In fact, the organizers opted to reverse the heats, with the test between the narrow posts in the day and the super-G postponed to tomorrow; so here in front of everyone we find the Canadian Jamie Casselman, but with only 14 cents of margin on the big favorite, the Norwegian Atle Lie McGrath who could make the difference in super-g compared to the North American. The 2000 class winner in the European Cup preceded a specialist like Samuel Kolega, third at 42 cents, then behind the Swiss Chabloz (very dangerous in the super-g heats) and Luetolf, in addition to the American Nelson, here are the two most awaited blues. Matteo Franzoni is 7th at 97 cents, just a penny ahead of Giovanni Franzoni, 8th and on the launching pad to be able to look for the medal with tomorrow's super-g. Instead he pays 2 "30 Martino Rizzi, who made a serious mistake in the final part of a very short heat, under 40 seconds of the race. Around 14.45 today, however, the decisive heats of the slalom valid for the women's combined will start, with Giulia Albano starting from the fourth position obtained in super-g, Sara Allemand instead from the eleventh.
