It starts again at the Lauberhorn

Langentrejen, Hundschopf, Minschkante, Kernen-S or Österreicher Loch: The Lauberhorn descent in Wengen is bursting with spectacular and traditional passages. Against the magnificent backdrop of the Eiger, Mönch and Jungfrau, the ski aces have an exciting World Cup weekend ahead of them, which heralds part two of an exciting season.

Paris and Feuz in focus – Innerhofer on the verge of a comeback Two athletes have left their mark on the speed season so far: Dominik Paris and Beat Feuz. The two are also among the absolute favorites in Wengen, even if the Ultner has never really managed the spectacular Lauberhorn descent. Paris actually likes Wengen, but the 2016-year-old was never better than fourth (30). Feuz, on the other hand, feels right at home in his homeland. He has already been at the top of the winner's podium twice and just as often in second place, one step below. Beat Feuz has already won twice in Wengen.

Now the test of strength on the Lauberhorn starts again with the first training session on Tuesday. The Wengen descent is the beginning of a series of classics that continues in Kitzbühel (January 25th) and Garmisch-Partenkirchen (February 1st). In addition to Paris, three other South Tyroleans will be at the start: Peter Fill, Alexander Prast (he was strong in the European Cup), Florian Schieder, Riccardo Tonetti and Christof Innerhofer. In addition, head coach Max Rinaldi has nominated Guglielmo Bosca, Emanuele Buzzi, Mattia Casse, Davide Cazzaniga, Matteo Marsaglia and Federico Simoni for the downhill and combined. Speaking of Innerhofer: The Gaiser will make his comeback in Wengen after it was not enough for the races in Val Gardena and Bormio. Slalom on Sunday, combined on Friday Because it doesn't start with the speed spectacle on Saturday in Wengen, but with the combination on Friday. Finally, on Sunday there will be a slalom on the Jungfrau/Männlichen slope, which is also one of the most difficult in the World Cup circuit. Manfred Mölgg, who tore his cruciate ligament in Adelboden, will definitely be missing. Stefano Gross, Giuliano Razzoli, Alex Vinatzer, Tommaso Sala, Simon Maurberger, Federico Liberatore (who last won a European Cup race), Tonetti and debutant Francesco Gori want to keep their team's colors high. World Cup in Wengen: The program Tuesday, Wednesday & Thursday: Training (12.30 p.m.) Friday: Combination (10.30 a.m. & 14 p.m.) Saturday: Departure (12.30 p.m.) Sunday: Slalom (10.15:13.15 a.m. & XNUMX:XNUMX p.m.)
