Kvitfjell and Lenzerheide, green light for the first races of March after the FIS snow check

In Norway there will be three speed events for men (4-6 March), in Switzerland the super-g cup could already be awarded, with the giant closing the two days.

The World Cup will restart next weekend of 26-27 February with the men involved in the Garmisch-Partenkirchen slalom and the women in Crans-Montana, for the two descents on Mont Lachaux. Today, however, the official green light from the FIS for the races of the following week has arrived, with the snow control which gave positive results for Kvitfjell and Lenzerheide. In Norway, the men's sector will experience a crucial weekend in the fight for the specialty cups: on 2-3 March the tests and then on Friday 4 and Saturday 5 March (again at 11.30) the two descents on the Olympic track, followed on Sunday 6 (start at 11.00) from the penultimate super-g of the season. After the “halved” finals of last season, the women will instead return to the canton of Grisons for super-g and giant on March 5-6. It will begin on Saturday (10.00) with the eighth and penultimate round of specialties, with the possibility for Federica Brignone to close the accounts for the super-g cup (in case she arrives in front of Curtoni and Goggia), then on Sunday the giant (at 10.00 and 13.30 the two runs).
