Funny race, the giant slalom won on Sunday at Alta Badia by Marco Odermatt. Early in the morning, during the reconnaissance, several athletes were arrested – not to mention shocked – by the state of the track they were going to have to walk, reported Blick. Usually, the Italian organizers are second to none when it comes to making the Gran Risa hard and icy, just the way the champions like it. This time, it was only in places, and some considered it dangerous to compete in a World Cup event there.
As the start was still given, it was clear that surprises were going to arise – this is the promise of unstable conditions. Leaders in the discipline like the Austrian Manuel Feller and the Valaisan Justin Murisier did not finish among the top thirty in the first round. The young Frenchman Leo Anguenot managed to get on his first podium. And the hierarchy as a whole was shaken, big names like Loïc Meillard and Lucas Braathen not finding their skis there.
