Five Italians for a women's super-g (6.30 pm) with Egger, Aicher and the Canadians in the front line.

There is not too much time to think about or celebrate the third world medal in his career, as well as the second title after the one obtained on March 3, 2021 in super-g in Bansko. Giovanni Franzoni, fresh off the world champion in descent, also wants an encore in "his" specialty, in this Junior World Championship of Panorama, which started off well for the talent from Brescia, who brought back the title of the queen discipline to Italy, seven years after Henri Battilani. Success that is also valid for access to the race of the CdM finals in Courchevel-Méribel, for the one who is the leader (with margin) of the European Cup standings and will have a guaranteed fixed place in the maximum circuit in a 2022/23 season in which get serious on the "upper floor". Tonight, at 20.00 Italian time, there will therefore be the super-g that Franzoni will face with bib number 4, after the Austrian Raphael Riederer with the 1 and before the great rival Lukas Feurstein (6), who managed to beat Bansko before the Wunderteam peer preceded him in giant. This is the probable duel for gold (among them, the Swiss Von Allmen will start with 5, yesterday silver downhill), in a race that will see another five blues at the gate, with Gregorio Bernardi number 7, Marco Abbruzzese (11), Simon Talacci (13) and the debut in this world championship by Filippo Della Vite (47) and Gianlorenzo Di Paolo with 64.

The favorites are others, starting with Magdalena Egger (n ° 5), in search of the fifth world title, followed by Durrer (6) and Aicher (7), but also by the Canadians Richardson (11) and Gray (14), with the American Macuga, bronze in descent, among them.
