Two names of great prestige, in a very rich gold register. La Sudtirol Gardenissima edition n Â° 23 awarded Mattia Casse and Federica Brignone, two points of the Italian national team who decided to dive along the 6 km long track of the "longest giant in the world", from the summit of Seceda at an altitude of 2519 m to '' arrival at 1485 meters, in the heart of a Val Gardena that welcomed the beauty of 680 athletes, coming from as many as 15 nations, with a race dedicated to young people and also for the "ski legends", which saw Isolde Kostner and Luca prevail Senoner. The men's race therefore saw Casse establish itself, returning this year finally to the levels expected also in the World Cup, which also signed the competition record with its 3''30 â€52 final, enough to burn 9 cents a l "Austrian Romed Baumann, already winner in the shadow of the Sassolungo, and 1 second net Simon Maurberger, new winner of the general classification of the European Cup. Among women, Fede Brignone won over time of 3''39 "52, ahead of 81 cents the 20 year old German Katrin Hirtl-Stanggassinger, with the other Teutonic Martina Willibald third over 4 seconds. A Federica Brignone to whom, after a good end of the season in which she was engaged on several fronts, the energies do not seem to be missing; the Aosta Valley arrived in Val Gardena after three days of speed training and, immediately after the Gardenissima (always followed by her brother Davide, pictured together after the race), he reached La Thuile to train together with his team mates. "For now, no holidays, I'll be on skis until the end of April," said the multi-skilled of La Salle, which we remember had lost a month and a half of training at the beginning of the season, after the accident suffered in August 2018 in Zermatt. And now it seems to stop wanting to stop, already thinking about the 2019/2020 season.
