The blue domination continues at the start of the Luge World Cup on a natural slope.
After the two appointments in Umhausen, also the third stage, staged on the Vatra Dornei track, sees the Italian squadron treating itself to a tide of podiums and two victories. Saturday began with the 2nd and 3rd place of Patrick Pigneter and Florian Clara in the men's single, beaten by a whisker (respectively 5 and 18 cents) only by that champion who responds to the name of the Austrian Thomas Kammerlander, leader of the general.
Yesterday, in the women's single, there was no space for Evelin Lanthaler's rivals, with the third consecutive seal and with more than a second margin on her teammate Greta Pinggera, great second ahead of the German Lisa Walch, who pays almost 3 seconds. Daniela Mittermair also did well, fifth at the finish line, while Nadine Staffler finished ninth.
Even the double formed by Patrick Pigneter and Florian Clara, they too capable of the seasonal trio in the Romanian race that saw them ahead of the Russian crew Egorov / Rodin by 63 cents and the Austrians by 1 "58, does not show signs of stopping. Achernarainer / Achernarainer.
