A new episode of the duel between ClÃ©ment Noel and Henrik Kristoffersen, coincidentally the last two winners on the "Ganslern", the possible inclusion of the usual Yule, Zenhaeusern and Pinturault, but also the attempt to revive Austria's slalom and a blue national team that he will play his cards after the last three specialty games that did not go exactly as he dreamed, including Manfred Moelgg's injury. The slalom in Kitzbuehel, the seventh seasonal appointment of specialties and the fifth classic of the month of January (Tuesday there will be the great night of Schladming), presents itself as a fundamental race both in terms of specialty ranking, with Noel and Yule in pursuit Kristoffersen, but above all for the general who sees the Norwegian forced not to make mistakes to take heavy points and return in front of everyone. Henrik will have the bib number 5, in the 1st heat scheduled at 10.30 (tracked by the Norwegian technician, Pilarski, while the second at 13.30 will be drawn by Matteo Joris from Valle d'Aosta, guide of Switzerland); to inaugurate the battle on the bumps of Ganslern will be AndrÃ¨ Myhrer, in difficulty in the last tests, followed by Yule, Noel and Zenhaeusern. After Kristoffersen here is the rival Pinturault and a Marco Schwarz in great recovery between Adelboden and Wengen. In the second subgroup, however, there will be fun with Feller, Foss-Solevaag never so close to the podium, Muffat-Jeandet himself and the reborn Khoroshilov third in Wengen. The eight blues (returning from a very good training on the Col DrusciÃ¨ track in Cortina) will drop almost immediately after 15: Stefano Gross has lost the first group and will have the bib number 16, Alex Vinatzer on 18, Giuliano Razzoli (on a of the slopes he loves most and after the excellent 11th in Wengen) with the 22nd and Simon Maurberger for 25th. And then again Sala called to a convincing qualification (bib 41 for the Brianza), Tonetti with 56, Liberatore (61) and Francesco Gori (71) in his second World Cup race after the debut of Wengen.
