Four blues for the 2nd round on a terrible "Face": Gross and Moelgg still have hope of podium

The Fassa ninth, 4 tenths from the third place, the Maremma a little further behind with Razzoli 15th and a decent Tonetti. Regrets for Vinatzer and a Hall ... injured.

A good first run, especially for a Stefano Gross in growing condition, good for the others. The national team of Jacques Theolier brings four men (out of nine at the start) of the 2nd run, in a slalom of Val d''Isère, very tough, on a Face de Bellevarde "called" further from the track of the British Glasse-Davies. The fassano's race was excellent, which to Levi had seemed still far from the top before leaving, but after three weeks he signed a nice 9th time, at 1 "14 from Pinturault and only 4 tenths from the third square of Zenhaeusern. Dreaming of a podium is not impossible, even for Manfred Moelgg who struggled a little more than "Sabo", finishing 11th at 1 "28. Then there is Giuliano Razzoli, who had confirmed that he was still far from the best shape and on a track that was certainly not ideal due to his characteristics (even though he touched a sensational podium 4 years ago), but he came up with a good performance with the 15th place at 1 "60 from the head. Inside, after Levi's bad race, also Riccardo Tonetti who will start again in fifth in the run scheduled at 12.30, after finishing in 26th position, at 2 "64 from Pinturault. The regrets are related to Alex Vinatzer, who made so much mistakes right away and paid over 5 seconds, but also for Tommaso Sala who stayed out for 3 tenths, decidedly conditioned by a new ankle problem accused in training in Sestriere in recent days, after having triumphed in the European Cup. Instead, Simon Maurberger, Federico Liberatore and Fabian Bacher have come out.
