Crazy Cochran-Siegle! He demolishes everyone in the Bormio super-g for his first cup triumph

The 28-year-old American makes a void in the heart of the Stelvio, preceding Kriechmayr and Sejersted, with Kilde and Caviezel off the podium. For Dominik Paris no top ten, but tomorrow downhill ...

He had dominated the two tests of the descent on the Stelvio that will be staged on Wednesday, but never in super-g had he given the impression of being able to play with the greats, so much so that his best result in the World Cup went back to eighth place last December 18th in Val Gardena. Well, after the first career podium obtained on the Saslong (2nd downhill behind Kilde, 24 hours after that result in SG), today in Bormio we saw a simply crazy Ryan Cochran-Siegle in the third specialty of the season. At 28, the American talent (son of Barbara Ann Cochran, Olympic slalom champion in Sapporo 1972) has definitely exploded, given that on the most demanding track of the circuit he was able to demolish a competition of the highest level, with a central section between Carcentina and Ciuk skied in a divine way. At the finish line, the first victory in the CdM will come with a margin of even 79 cents over Vincent Kriechmayr, who would have liked to break the curse for an Austrian national team still dry of successes (including the women's sector) in this 2020/21 season. Back on the podium after Val d''Isère an excellent Adrian Smiseth Sejersted, third at 94 cents from Cochran-Siegle, in front of the captain of the norge Aleksander Aamodt Kilde (4th at 1 "18), who only gnaws 5 points in the fight for the specialty cup went to the leader Mauro Caviezel, at the end fifth just ahead of Kjetil Jansrud. Kilde who will also gain little on Marco Odermatt and Alexis Pinturault, in view of the general classification of the World Cup, if we think that the Swiss will finish 7th at 1 "50 and the French, who started with bib n ° 1, 9th at 1" 78 (between the two, a disappointed Matthias Mayer only 8th). For Italy, as in Val Gardena, no top ten: on his track Dominik Paris was clearly the most awaited man, even if the real chances "Domme" will have them tomorrow downhill: the 11th partial placement (2 "02 from the summit) is not to be thrown away, however, also considering that the bib number 2 was certainly not in favor of the blue jet, which paid especially in the upper part of the Stelvio on which the last super- g disputed here, two years ago, in addition of course to the five pearls downhill.
