On the last day of the World Cup stage in Dizin, Edoardo Frau was in fact able to obtain a victory and a second place that meant reducing the gap from the leader of the circuit, the Czech Martin Bartak, to only 90 points when there were no '' the slalom appeal that will close the trip to Iran on Tuesday and the races of the finals scheduled in Schilpario, from Thursday 12 to Sunday 15 September with two super-g, a super combined, a giant and a slalom (same menu for women, but with one less supergiant).
The 39-year-old native of Asiago, among other things, may have some regrets for having surrendered only 10 cents compared to the direct rival in the super-g of the morning, given the 20 points more or less towards Bartak could have changed the situation a lot, considering that a few hours later Frau dominated the super-combined (with slalom combined with the super-g in the morning), while the Czech was in 4th place.
With the 49th career success in the World Cup races, the ace of national grass skiing can still hope, at 690 points compared to Bartak's 780, for what would be the seventh crystal ball .
As for the other Azzurri, the day's races saw Lorenzo Gritti take home a 5th and a 6th place, respectively between super-g and super-combined, which meant 3rd place overall in the slalom specialist, while Filippo Zamboni finished 9th and 7th and Nicolò Schiavetti at 8th and 5th place.
Good news also came from women's rehearsals, dominated by the Austrian Jacqueline Gerlach, who has now closed all speeches from a World Cup perspective: Antonella Manzoni has confirmed herself as a podium woman with a second place in supergiant and a third in super combined, maintaining the second place in the overall standings with 570 points, at 390 lengths from Gerlach.
