The deadline to come forward is May 1. So the various countries interested in hosting the World Championship event scheduled from 6 years will have to officially notify the next four weeks.
According to ads arrived in recent months, the race for the World Cup in 2023 should be two.
The strongest candidate is undoubtedly that of Austria, which will rely on the ski resort of Saalbach-Hinterglemm, already the scene of the 1991 world championship races The town of Salzburg last November has gained the status of an official candidate OSV passed internal competition in St. Anton am Arlberg, in the affected time to show up.
The 'only alternative would be France, which a candidate jointly Courchevel and Meribel. Even in this case has been carried out an internal selection, in which the two locations of the Savoie have been preferred in Chamonix and Val d' 'Isere, considered less competitive in terms of logistics and tourism plan.
Unless of surprises there should be no other competitors. On the 'other hand, Switzerland, Sweden and Italy have excluded the' Office (no nation can organize World Championships in less than 8 years after the previous dall''edizione); Slovenia and Norway have focused on the race to the Nordic World Ski Championships the same year; Ditto Germany, but with the World Cup biathlon. In North America, however the 'obtaining of the event does not seem to have aroused interest.
It should be noted as for Austria it would be of yet another great winter sports event in the space of a decade. In 2013 just Championships Alpine Ski World were held in Schladming. In 2015 those of snowboard and freestyle were staged at Kreischberg. Igls hosted the world championship trials bobsled and skeleton in 2016 and those of 2017. sledding Quest''inverno Hochfilzen World Cup has been the scene of biathlon, while in Seefeld will host the World Championships of 2019 in Nordic skiing.
Just this "binge rainbow" rot-weiß-rot be a point in favor of France, at least according to the president of SBB Michel Vion. On the 'other hand, the country recently organized trans only the Alpine World Ski Championships 2009 in Val d' Isere. For sure it will not be easy fighting the economic and Austrian culture force in the field of snow and ice sports.
On May 1, you will be sure of what will be the candidate. The FIS will take its decision during the 2018 Congress.
