As usual in the resort & agrave; Saxon wind has often changed direction and intensity & agrave ;, enhance or penalize depending on the time the athletes presented themselves in pole start. However, regardless of Aeolus, success & egrave; I went with about a guy who already & agrave; He had impressed in the positive at the end of the season on plastic.
The twenty Norwegian has confirmed the good sported in October and & egrave; become the protagonist of two excellent jumps in favorable conditions, revealing the total 'man pi & ugrave; strong day ahead and those who could be considered the three favorites on the eve.
Piazza d''a great honor for Peter Prevc, who had to bow to the Scandinavian 3.1 points. Slovenian & egrave; out on top in the first set, but not & egrave; able to repeat the same level in the second giving cos & Igrave; the pi & ugrave; young opponent.
The podium & egrave; Severin Freund was completed by a less powerful than expected. German & egrave; remained below expectations, probably because of the fact that he got wind of less friendly than others during both of his jumps, and was not a factor in the fight for victory. At least he harpooned the third place ahead of only one tenth of a convincing Richard Freitag.
Fifth place for the 'eternal Noriaki Kasai, turned positive compared to the team event yesterday. The quarantatreenne Japanese, as always very solid and able to ride air favorable, preceded a good one and Andreas Wellinger Stefan Kraft forced to give up the podium because of a bad first jump.
Debut with a bang for the sixteen Domen Prevc eighth just ahead of another young gun, the twenty year old Johann Andre Forfang, particularly affected by the weather conditions in the first series. Day of glory for Norway thanks all''undicesimo place of Kenneth Gangnes and fifteenth of Andreas Stjernen.
On the contrary the 'Austria & egrave; It was saved by Kraft Since & eacute; Gregor Schlierenzauer finished seventeenth, not minding in the first series, but "puncturing" completely the second jump. Eighteenth one off Michael Hayb & ouml; ck.
They confirmed the difficulties & agrave; Poland, which he places in the points only Kamil Stoch, who scored a double-sided test: positive in the first half & agrave; and rubbish in the second. However the palm of disappointment of the day goes to an opaque Rune Velta, excluding the points. Even manuel fettner, Kento Sakuyama and Ville Larinto have been "cut" from qualifying, after which & egrave; Robert Kranjec was disqualified.
No Italian has overcome the obstacle of qualifying. Sebastian Colloredo is & egrave; confirmed the pi & ugrave; in the form of the blues just reciting the coveted role of the first of those excluded from the race. Little more & ugrave; back Alex Insam, while results are more & ugrave; David lingered Bresadola and Roberto Dellasega.
Next week the World Cup will go & agrave; staged in Ruka, Finland. It begins already & agrave; Thursday & Igrave; 26 with the qualification for the first race, scheduled for Friday at 17.00 Italian & Igrave ;. Second race instead at 16.00 Italian Saturday.
