Italy that in this discipline has obtained the first gold medal in the history of the Winter Olympic Games thanks to the great Nino Bible, in the forthcoming edition Five Rings will play a role of mere appearance.
Maurizio Oioli will be the only Italian representative at the start and likely will start with the aim of coming as close as possible to the top ten. An ambitious goal for the thirty-Domodossola that has struggled early in the season and not even just to qualify for the final run, but over the last month has shown at least to have found the right feeling with the new skeleton that allowed him to close the competitive year with a decent placement in Koenigssee last round of the World Cup.
