Two races in one in that of Chaikovsky (Rus), but in the end the honor of victory goes to Slovenian Lanisek, a 143m jumper who hoisted him from 10th to 1st place. Johann Andre Forfang, on command after the first jump, failed to repeat in the second set and ended at the foot of the podium. The Norwegian was in fact also overtaken by two home athletes. Klimov then stood in the plaza, overtaking Kornilov thanks to better performance in the second round. Complete the top 5 with another Slovenian, Anze Semenic. Excellent performance of the Italian team, led today by a great Alex Insam, the author of a constant race on excellent levels that allowed him to conclude 6th, lacking just over a point the top 5. Mark also points the other two blue in race. Colloredo finished 24th, Bresadola 25th. The latter was the protagonist of a two-faced race. In the first jump he reached 128.5m which allowed him to raise to 8th place. However, this performance was frustrated by a second difficult jump that made it slippery in 16 positions. After seven races, the standings saw Dawid Kubacki with 300 points, followed by Junshiro Kobayashi and Anze Lanisek at 234 and 231 points respectively. Tomorrow is scheduled for a second race on Chaikovsky's trampoline, trackers will have another chance to approach the leader, absent this weekend.
