Weber insult Koeck and Alphand in the super-g of Santa Caterina Valfurva: no podium for the Azzurri

It ended with the fast test won by the Swiss, the two days of the men's European Cup on the "Deborah Compagnoni". Alexander Prast is a good fifth.

It ended with a podium formed by athletes already with important experiences in the World Cup, the two days of Santa Caterina Valfurva dedicated to the Men's European Cup and organized by Cancer Primo Aiuto Onlus, the third stage of the continental circuit. On the "Deborah Compagnoni", after the French triumph in the combined Monday with Robin Buffet winner, it was the Swiss Ralph Weber to establish himself in today's super-g: the 26-year-old from San Gallo won the fifth race of his career in the European Cup, to almost 4 years after the last solo in the Davos descent, risking to compromise everything in the final stretch of the Valtellina track, after making the difference in the first minute of the race. Weber conceded almost half a second to Niklas Koeck, the Austrian first yesterday in the super-g heats of the combined and mocked today for 3 cents, with the French Nils Alphand third at 8. A very tight challenge, with the first 18 athletes enclosed in less than a second: in the fourth place another Austrian, Raphael Haaser, with Alexander Prast who is the first blue, in 5th place just 27 cents from success. At home Italy, followed by Florian Schieder, 8th at + 0 "49, and in the top ten there is also Pietro Zazzi, 10th at + 0" 57. Further back, Guglielmo Bosca (yesterday 6th in the super-g heats), at the end of the 16th, Nicolò Molteni 19th and Matteo Vaghi 20th, the same position obtained in combined. Tommaso Sala remains the leader of the general of a European Cup that now, for the male sector, will move to Zinal for another two super-gs scheduled, Thursday and Friday, on Swiss snow; from Monday 16 with the slalom on the "Aloch" of Pozza di Fassa, off to the all-Italian week with the Obereggen slalom on Wednesday 18 and the parallel slalom on Kronplatz on Saturday 21, at night.
