And 'the "holy week", so we could define it with the arrival of the Men's World Cup in Italy, with the four days of races between Val Gardena and Alta Badia, before moving then to Bormio at the end of the year, but still more so as regards the European Cup, Italy becomes the reference point for the entire circuit.
From Monday 16th to Saturday 21st, men and women will play matches and points only on the snows of Trentino and Alto Adige: after the female giants of Andalo, which went on stage between yesterday and today, the slalom starts again tomorrow at night Pozza di Fassa, on a tostissima track like the "Aloch" that will see many World Cup athletes as protagonists and above all the big blue ones or almost, given that the same Stefano Gross landlord, and splendid third today in Val d '' Isère, wants to pass from these races to grow further thinking about the classics of January.
A slalom that arrives after the two opening in Funesdalen that launched Tommaso Sala in command of a European Cup that still sees the Brianza leader of the overall (with 13 points of margin on the Austrian Koeck and 31 on the other blue Alexander Prast, super-g winner in Zinal), although the ankle injury he suffered in training in Sestriere worries; two days later, it will be time again to challenge among the rapid gates in Obereggen, on Wednesday 18, before the grand finale with the night parallel of Kronplatz, Saturday 21 to a few hours from the "gigantic" of CdM on the Gran Risa.
