Even without Kilde and the young phenomena, it's a quality Norway for Cortina: the 14 called up

The Scandinavian team's choices are official: 8 men with Kristoffersen to defend the giant title (but will focus above all on the slalom) and Jansrud downhill, among the girls hopes with Lie and the awaited rebirth of Mowinckel.

Of course, the chances would have been much greater with Aleksander Aamodt Kilde on the track to go to the onslaught of medals in more disciplines, but also with McGrath and Braathen themselves between combined and technical disciplines. Norway will have to do without its three luxury injuries, but will still show up in Cortina with a competitive team. The call-ups of the norge team for the next world championships are official: 14 athletes, with 8 men and a men's line-up that will have its beacon in the name of Henrik Kristoffersen, champion in charge of the giant and called to play, considering the seasonal performance among the wide doors, especially his chances in slalom, where there will be another level striker like Sebastian Foss-Solevaag, in addition to Timon Haugan and Leif Kristian Nestvold-Haugen, who will also play the same giant as Haugan and Fabian Wilkens Solheim. There are only three sprinters: it is Kjetil Jansrud, who triumphed downhill in Are 2019 (ahead of Aksel Lund Svindal), the returning Adrian Smiseth Sejersted, already on the podium twice this season but injured in Bormio before putting his skis back on feet at the last cup races in Garmisch, and the very interesting Henrik Roea. You are the girls involved in the competitions on the Olympia delle Tofane: Ragnhild Mowinckel is a woman of great events, but compared to PyeongChang and Are obviously her condition is very different after the three knee operations. We'll see if she will be able to be reborn in Cortina, even if perhaps the chances of medals at the women's level go above all to Kajsa Vickhoff Lie, for the first time on the podium in the first super-g of Garmisch. For the technical competitions (but also combined and parallel), spotlights on Mina Fuerst Holtmann, Maria Tviberg, Kristin Lysdahl and Thea Louise Stjernesund.
