Wednesday the first test on the Streif: without Paris, seven blues will be involved

At 11.30 am start of the first of the two training sessions towards the Kitz descent scheduled for Saturday. Feuz will open with the 1, Innerhofer with the number 10. Odermatt's flashback, which will then point to Friday's super-g. How much anger not to see "Domme" ...

There will not be the most awaited protagonist, the one who on the Streif (from top to bottom!) Has already triumphed three times downhill and was ready to give us a weekend of pure entertainment. The absence of Dominik Paris deprives Kitzbuehel of his King, but the show will go on with the first test scheduled on Wednesday, starting at 11.30 (good weather is expected), towards the descent on Saturday which will be anticipated by the second training of Thursday and the super-g set for Friday. Beat Feuz's red bib will open, then Kilde with 3, Kriechmayr and Mayer with numbers 5 and 7, to better prepare the assault on a Streif that Austria would like to see return to a home athlete. And after Thomas Dressen (No. 9), winner in 2018 and on the podium last Sunday in Wengen, the first blue at the starting gate: Christof Innerhofer will have the number 10 and will test himself to make his return to the race on Friday in super-g , as promised after giving up the Wengen races. There will therefore be only seven of Ghidoni's men in the race, with Casse n ° 22 (always very fast in practice), Buzzi with 24, Marsaglia and Fill with 30 and 31, Cazzaniga with 44 and Guglielmo Bosca for 53rd. Two descents after the Milanese, here is the competitive return of Marco Odermatt, exactly one month after the rupture of the meniscus of the right knee remedied in the giant in Alta Badia. The Swiss, after training in Reiteralm, will look for the best sensations to present himself in the race in the super-g.
