A victory than today strongly supported by top-notch Baltic & nbsp; especially for the 'enormous historical significance of this result. Dukurs fact & egrave; rose to share & nbsp; up 40 hits in world circuit writing a new page in the history of this discipline. The pi & ugrave; great skeletonista of every age with the conquest of this important milestone has in fact quadrupled the number of races won dall''elvetico Gregor Staehli second athlete ever for number of & nbsp; successes in the World Cup. & nbsp;
Beyond the & agrave; of cold numbers, & nbsp; Dukurs quest''oggi for the 'umpteenth time showed on the field to be definitely the most & ugrave; strong, playing a second run encyclopedic opponents and fans should review all''infinit & agrave ;. The thirty-one native of Riga but raised in effect in Sigulda, & nbsp; in the final heat has indeed found the perfect lines that allowed him to unleash great speed & agrave; out of corners and cross the finish line with the new record dell''impianto Bavarian, improving the previous record by more than 6/10! This monstrous performance allowed him to trim at once the beauty of 45 cents to Alexander Tretiakov who had closed to command the first half, with only 2 cents ahead of Latvia.
The Baltic cos & Igrave; It closes the triptych opening this season with three straight wins, since previously he had already & agrave; imposed Altenberg and Winterberg, preparing to rule the roost in the month of January in the three North American stages.
Behind the winner as mentioned earlier you & egrave; Tretiakov who placed the usual & egrave; He managed to steal the show at the historic rival only for one heat. Olympic champion with this second place clinched his quarantaquatteesimo podium in the World Cup in front of its sun 7 wins. Completed the top-three Korean Sungbin Yun that the final run has overtaken the eldest Dukurs, Tomass. & Nbsp;
Dukurs apart the day today will come & agrave; remembered for the splendid performance of Mattia Gaspari that with tenth place & nbsp; today reported the 'Italy in the top ten of an event of the World Cup after three years from the ninth position of Maurizio Oioli. The twenty-two Cortina d''Ampezzo & nbsp; seventeenth after the first run, you & egrave; passed in the final descent closing with an outstanding eighth part time that allowed him to recover in one shot with 7 positions relative to the first heat. The driver of the Bob Club Cortina & nbsp; & egrave in particular; did very nell''affrontare the difficult & nbsp; Schlangengrube a key track in Koenigssee releasing this stretch the second best speed & agrave; of 'out of the day, gaining important cents on opponents. & nbsp;
No small smudge committed in the first downhill, probably today's race would have allowed Matthias to climb a few more ranking getting closer and more & ugrave; among the big names in the discipline. Given the young age & agrave; dell''azzurro and his lack of experience in the World Series, the result of today & egrave; very encouraging for future perspective and it is hoped that a talent like that may soon be better protected arruolandolo maybe in one of the many sports groups military. The 'important & egrave; now avoid putting the boy under pressure since January Gaspari affronter & agrave; for the first time in his life the three casings North American and as the component experience counts a lot in the sport we will find him very difficult to fight for the top ten. & nbsp;
Instead disappoint Joseph Cecchini, the 'other blue entered for the race. The 'Italian-Canadian for the third consecutive test not & egrave; He failed to qualify for the second run, finishing in twenty-third place, & nbsp; although to be honest quest''oggi the Italian champion has missed the 'access to the final heat for only 19 cents. Now the bearer of the Ski Club Selvino & nbsp; after the Christmas break will have & agrave; the possibilities & agrave; to redeem himself, as it correr & agrave; on three tracks that the 'athlete originally from Calgary knows very well.
The next round of the World Cup men's skeleton & egrave; scheduled to start in January on the track in Lake Placid.
