A contender for the entry podium, Nils Allègre inherited 10. Behind, we will find Maxence Muzaton (17), Matthieu Bailet (19), Adrien Théaux (29) and Nils Alphand (31).

After having expressed doubts about his participation, for his return from injury, Alexis Pinturault will skip this first descent, the first of three American races.
