Impossible qualification for the blues with high numbers: Italy with 3 men in the second of Hinterstoder

The Austrian giant sees De Aliprandini still in the running for something ... big. Tonetti and Borsotti are saved, nothing to do for Ballerin, Nani, Bosca and Sorio.

An almost impossible qualification, a bit like what happened to Yuzawa Naeba in the giant played ten days ago. There are therefore only three blues who had access to the second round of the Hinterstoder giant, scheduled at 12.30 on the track designed by Roberto Saracco. Drawing that Luca De Aliprandini will have to make the most of, to go to the onslaught of a far from impossible podium: 6 tenths to recover in Kranjec, with the seventh place in the first heat, 1 ”72 from Pinturault, which despite bib number 11 (Trentino is the best in terms of placement-number) could also have been better. In fact, Luca had contained in 8 tenths the gap from the Frenchman at the end of the wall, on a par with Kranjec himself and in front of Zubcic, but on the long final plateau he was unable to push at best. With No. 29, Riccardo Tonetti had no major problems, 23rd at 3 "01 from the top, while Giovanni Borsotti (bib number 35) qualified his qualification by a whisker, 30th at 4" 09. Half a second too much from teammate Giulio Bosca, who finished at 4 ”59 with the number 49, while Ballerin and Nani finished more than 5 seconds, who failed to take advantage of the chance with 40 and 41, and finally at 6 ”25 Daniele Sorio, forced with 54 to ... miracles.
