Claudio Ravetto: "We are on the eve of the Olympic season and give you the numbers of the first three years have already passed the four-year Olympic. 111 World Cup races, 33 podiums, including 12 wins, 84 placings in the first 6 and 161 top ten . These numbers are quite heavy, plus two World Cups with 10 races, 7 medals, top 9 6:14 top 10. I hope these numbers to be re-elected from here in Sochi and Sochi. nullify everything I'd hate to unfavorable situations, I defy any sport Italian men to present these numbers without the super champion ".
Jacques Theolier: "Quest'' winter the level of gigantism is higher than for'' Last year, we do not know where the others are.'' It was very difficult to prepare because we lack Sölden two to three days due to bad weather. "
Florian Eisath: "Two or three days are a bit'' to everyone, even to the other teams, we have to take what we did and make something worthwhile. Qualitative leap? In the first race I have to attack right from the beginning and'' become more consistent. "
Max Blardone: "I will try to do my best race.'' L will be difficult to go fast, I'm not 100% yet but I am very confident to have a good race. Every year this race is different because the glacier moves all the time, when one is strong wins races, and that's that. "
Davide Simoncelli: "We are always here with question marks and when you go away every now and then you have the answers. You always hope to find the right conditions, in Argentina it was not so, the glaciers has been a little better but not too much. It starts only by the assurance that you have, then I'll think about the Olympics later because I also have to qualify. "
Manfred Moelgg: "I am truly very happy to be here because a week ago it looked like. I have another day tomorrow for another round, and then we'll see some Sundays. Up to mid-August had gone very well. A Olympic season is more important than the World Cup but you have to go strong all season and the road to Sochi is still long. Ligety, Hirscher and Pinturault are very strong but the gaps will not be those of the'' last year. "
Cristian Deville: "I thank'' s opportunity that I had to race,'' the last year has gone very wrong, I'm going strong in giant slalom, it will not be easy to qualify for the second run because the starting number will be very high. "
Luca De ALIPRANDINI: "L'' last year in part in Badia I struggled, we have not skied in the best conditions, but we will give it. My companions experts know always bring out the best in training, which is perhaps a young miss. "
Roberto Nani: "We have had very different conditions in preparation, Rettenbach I like, the'' Last year I was twenty, and this time I hope to do even better due to much better start."
John Borsotti: "I have done everything to be here a month ago there would have hoped, Argentina did not do more than two or three laps then back to Europe, everything has changed and it went very well. I still had bad the meniscus and I had to re-operate in the summer because it was all broken, why the recovery has been more complicated than expected. "
