Nothing to do in Lake Louise: canceled the first test of the men's descent

Bad weather prevents the men of jets from opening the dances on the Men''s Olympic: they will try again on Thursday night in view of Saturday's race.

Nothing to do. The first test of the men's downhill run in Lake Louise, due to the seasonal opening dedicated to speed, was canceled due to bad weather. Clouds at the top of the Men''s Olympic track, with the helicopter's inability to get up in the air and, also considering the space from here to Saturday's race, the chief race director of the men's World Cup, Markus Waldner, wanted to avoid risks. Between Thursday and Friday, again at 8.15 pm Italian time, there will be two other possibilities to test the track ahead of Saturday's race, followed by Sunday's super-g (again at 8.15 pm). Five are expected at Lake Louise, starting with Dominik Paris (who had chosen bib number 7 for the first test), with Peter Fill, Emanuele Buzzi, Mattia Casse and Federico Simoni completing the training. In the Italian night, new bib numbers for the test that will hopefully be played on Thursday.
