The descent of surprises, by Niels Hintermann and Cameron Alexander ex aequo winners in the first act of the Kvitfjell triptych, but also by Guglielmo Bosca and Nicolò Molteni, the blue protagonists of the day with the best career results, starting respectively with bibs 48 and 54.
Ninth the Milanese who has been stationed for years in the Aosta Valley, 14th the Como who until now had never finished in the points. It was instead a bitter ninth descent of the season for Dominik Paris, tenth and almost out of the game for the World Cup of discipline, now having to recover 108 points from Kilde. “I was not able to go to the top today - Domme's words to Physi.org - In the first part I missed the launch in the plan, too much time is lost there and the race is over. From the middle down I wasn't even that bad, but the mistake in the upper part was now irrecoverable. Today it went like this, let's see what comes out tomorrow ”.
"I could not have done better, in the current situation - added Christof Innerhofer, definitely far from the points zone - At the second intermediate, where I am usually among the first, now I already take eight / nine tenths because I can't push with my left foot. (after the fall on Wednesday, ed). These two seconds, under normal conditions, I certainly could have canceled them, but with the super-swollen knee I just couldn't do more ”.
“I'm too happy - these are the first words of an enthusiastic“ Gugu ”Bosca - I've been walking around for a while. For some years now I have felt that I have been skiing well, that I am doing good partials, unfortunately, however, with various hitches and various injuries (terrible the one in December 2017 in Reiteralm which upset my career) I have never been able to compete my full potential. I'm really glad I did it today.
It's my best result, the first top ten and I'm really excited. And if I think I managed to do it this season after the reconstruction of the right knee crusader (at the beginning of 2021, ed), it is truly incredible. In the last season I made some unthinkable improvements that I didn't think possible. So I want to thank the FISI Medical Commission and all those who helped me ”.
