Paris ready to look for his sixth pearl in the Bormio descent: "It will be like playing poker"

Today another test pulling at times for the Italian champion, who thus analyzes the race that on Tuesday will open the triptych on the Stelvio: "In the lower part the snow changes, but the track is good ...".

There will be seven blues at the attack of the Stelvio, in the descent number 4 of this season of the World Cup that can only have, in "his" Bormio where he won six times in his career (one in super-g, the others in race queen), an absolute reference point for everyone and which responds to the name of Dominik Paris. On Tuesday, together with the champion of Val d''Ultimo, important cards will also be played by Christof Innerhofer, Matteo Marsaglia and Mattia Casse, but there will also be the goal of points for Nicolò Molteni, Guglielmo Bosca and Pietro Zazzi (today the Bormino is very good in the '' last training, eighth). Paris opted twice for the bib number 1 in the tests that saw him finish 10th and 7th. “I tried the upper part a bit, finding some holes on which I didn't feel very well - the words of“ Domme ”after today's training - I think I have taken the measures: tomorrow we will have to risk and put everything on the track. There is a nice frozen snow in the upper part, where it is not possible to correct a lot, but still tough. In the lower part the snow changes, becoming more aggressive, but in general it is a nice moving track. I arrive quite well, yesterday I rehearsed the first piece where the gap was not very much. It's like playing poker: if you find the right line you can be very fast, but if you lower your odds you risk losing a lot ”.
