The blue leader of the sled took the 6th podium of the season in the World Cup, with the place of honor of a sprint race that saw him earn many points on the Russian Repilov. Second also the double of Rieder-Kainzwaldner.

It was another decidedly important weekend for the Italy of sledging, starring with two podiums on the gut of Sigulda which hosted a new stage of the World Cup.
Dominik Fischnaller, in fact, took the fourth place first (recovering from the 11th in the first heat) in the "classic" and slightly crazy race that opened the program, won by Johannes Ludwig ahead of Roman Repilov and David Gleirscher , with Kevin Fischnaller 9th, then did even better in the sprint finishing second, burned 69 thousandths by the Russian Semen Pavlichenko.
The sixth seasonal podium of the 26 year old from Bressanone means shortening the overall leader Repilov again, now 58 points ahead of the national team leader, when there are still three events scheduled.
