A Swiss is in the lead before the final round of the Adelboden giant, scheduled for Sunday at 1:30 p.m. And it’s not Marco Odermatt, here in search of a fourth consecutive victory that only Ingemar Stenmark has already won before him. The leader of the general classification still remains in ambush, 3rd, 34 hundredths behind the lead occupied by his compatriot Loïc Meillard. Pointing at 27 hundredths, Henrik Kristoffersen is inserted between the two Helvetii. And we find another Norwegian in the running for victory, Atle Lie McGrath (4th at 0″35).
Far from this Swiss-Scandinavian match, two French people can hope to finish in the top 10. After 40 bibs, Alexis Pinturault (+1″60) and Thibaut Favrot (+1″99) occupy the 14th and 17th provisional ranks. Well on his way to place in the top 5, Léo Anguenot, revelation of Alta Badia (2nd), left the track before the wall. Diego Orecchioni, who could also hope to qualify, fell shortly before the finish.
