You can't joke about the “Stelvio”, not even in practice, and so it is already very interesting to evaluate what we saw today, in the first test towards the descent which, on Tuesday 28th, will open the three-day speed race in Bormio.
The Azzurri are there, and how, with Matteo Marsaglia in amazing form and able to set the best time, enchanting the curves of the central section to precede Carcentina, as well as in the final after the jump of San Pietro. The Piedmontese, already fourth in Beaver Creek, trims 18 cents to an Aleksander Aamodt Kilde who is frightening from the Chuk down and clears the doubts about the condition of his knee after the "pinched" for the exit on the Saslong.
And behind Niels Hintermann, 3rd time trial at 46 cents from Marsaglia, here is Mattia Casse, fourth at 49 cents and ready to finally compete for the first podium in CdM on a perfect track for his characteristics, also considering that the Piedmontese is fresh from the great 7th in Gardena, Christof Innerhofer 5th at + 0 "55 and Dominik Paris, the King of the Stelvio, sixth at 76 cents but starting with bib 1 and being very fast in the upper part, despite the conditions then improved with the numbers taller.
Behind "Domme", there are the Germans Ferstl and Schwaiger, with Matthias Mayer 9th at 1 "07, while Beat Feuz is" only "from the top 15 (+1" 27, on par with Clarey), but with a couple of very fast sectors and anything but to be underestimated in terms of the race, like Ryan Cochran-Siegle who will finish at 1 ”39. 1 "89 gap for Marco Odermatt, who will aim to bring home some downhill points before the super-g, while Kriechmayr reaches 2" 81, but gets up completely in the last 30 seconds of the test.
The return of Carlo Janka is difficult, at the first competitive test after months and almost 6 seconds from the leadership, while the other five blues await at the gate with high bibs, namely Bosca, Molteni, Zazzi, Franzoni and Franzoso.
