Of course, the double test in Schuchinsk, the scene in Kazakhstan of the resumption of the Summer Grand Prix with the first two races of the campaign to the east of the summer circuit (which next weekend will make a stop in Russia, on the Chaikovsky springboard), did not see great rivals considering the absence of Poles, Austrians and Germans above all, but Halvor Egner Granerud dominated the competition by signing a double of authority.
In Game 1, the Norwegian ace preceded compatriot Markus Lindvik by 9.4 points, with Bulgarian Vladimir Zografski third ahead of Robert Johansson and Cene Prevc. On Sunday, however, the second appointment on the Kazakh small trampoline saw the winner of the last World Cup win over Johansson himself, second with 9 points behind, and the other norge Lindvik, ex aequo with the Russian Danil Sadreev, the surprise of the day with a third place ahead of compatriots Trofimov and Nazarov, respectively 5th and 6th ahead of Zografski.
The Azzurri performed well in the race, in particular Giovanni Bresadola with a 16th and a 24th place (shame about the second jump in race 2, when he was fighting for the top 15), but also Francesco Cecon, 24th on the first day and then 34th Sunday. Important points in key Olympic passes for Beijing 2022.
