Odermatt more and more leader in the giant, but Zubcic is there. And Ligety loses the top 15 after years ...

The rankings of the men's World Cup after the two races in Santa Caterina Valfurva: the Swiss commands the general on a par with Pinturault. Now it's time for the jet men.

What has become the three days of the CdM's return to Santa Caterina Valfurva, with the postponement of the second race scheduled for 24 hours, unquestionably rewards Marco Odermatt and Filip Zubcic, the two great protagonists of the giants on the Deborah Compagnoni. A first and a third place each that mean red bib, increasingly red after today's victory, for the 23-year-old from Switzerland, and the Croatian in full race for the same crystal ball in the discipline, at -58 from the leader and in front to the various Meillard, Braathen and Pinturault. The Frenchman, who certainly cannot leave Valtellina happy with two fifth places, still commands the overall cup classification with 240 points, now on par with Odermatt himself. Of course, out of four races, we are talking about three giants and a parallel giant, so much so that Zubcic himself is in third place ahead of Kristoffersen, but from next weekend with the first two speed races in Val d''Isère (Saturday downhill, Sunday super-g), we will understand which sprinters will be able to fight overall and if Aleksander Aamodt Kilde, already almost 180 points away from the leading duo, will soon be able to recover. Analyzing the situation of the giant WCSL, thinking about the fourth round scheduled for December 20 in Alta Badia, the top 7 remains the same, but Loic Meillard is now very close to Nestvold-Haugen (5 points for the Norwegian on the Swiss, still eighth). Luca De Aliprandini, with the 6th place today, has gained positions (now he is 12th) and margin to defend the second sub-group of merit and indeed he is not even far from the first (about ninety points from Nestvold-Haugen himself). On the other hand, the one who comes out of the world top 15, and has found himself in this situation in the last 15 years practically only once, or after the Crusader injury in January 2016, is Ted Ligety: the American champion has so far collected 12 points in 3 races, he did not even qualify for second today and is 16th in the WCSL, with Alexander Schmid, now a certainty among wide gates, taking his place.
