A few days of rest after Soelden, also because the month of November will be very intense, thinking above all of the preparation of the first fast races in Lake Louise, at the beginning of December. The blue veterans from Rettenbach have returned to the snow in the past few hours, with Marta Bassino engaged in Val Senales and Sofia Goggia up the Stelvio, while Federica Brignone returned home and was also a guest on Friday at the WTA tournament in Courmayeur, joking with another type of racket in hand. On Sunday, Bassino and Goggia will ideally compete for the FISI athlete of the year election, central moment of the 2021 Skipass review scheduled at 5.30 pm: with the winners of the Giant and Downhill World Cups, they will compete for the prize Dorothea Wierer, Federico Pellegrino and Matteo Eydallin. Yesterday, the Olympic champion Giuliano Razzoli and the very young Filippo Della Vite, Giovanni Franzoni and Sophie Mathiou appeared at the FISI stand. An ideal handover, with the gold in slalom in Vancouver 2010 that launched the two boys born in 2001 and the junior world champion in 2002, joking with the Aosta Valley player on the fact that the "Razzo" has never participated in the World category. “That's right, but I had many dreams like these guys - the words of the 36-year-old from Villa Minozzo, who took part in the ribbon cutting of the Modena event - They have to pursue their Olympic dream because everything is possible. Then I have never found an athlete who asked me for advice on how to win gold at the Olympics. The only one who did it? I don't want to take credit, but it was Sofia Goggia ”, Giuliano smiled.
