An Italian triumphs in Reinswald

Davide Cazzaniga from Correzzana in the province of Monza celebrated his first European Cup victory. And that with the smallest possible lead of one hundredth of a second.

The Super-G on the Schönebenpiste in Reinswald has always been a thriller. The last race of this year's Sarn Speed Week as part of the Alpine European Cup once again lived up to this reputation. Day's winner Davide Cazzaniga covered the 2301 meter long route in a time of 1.18,04:0,01 minutes and was therefore a full 38 seconds faster than the Austrian Stefan Babinsky. Things got exciting again when downhill winner Thomas Biesemeyer with start number “30” scratched the fastest time. In the end, the 0,14-year-old American took third place, XNUMX seconds behind.

For Cazzaniga, who competed in his 73rd European Cup race on Friday, it was the first victory in the second highest racing series for alpine ski racers. At the same time, it was the third European Cup podium of his career – and the third in Reinswald. Four different winners from four nations Alexander Prast from Bolzano took eleventh place as the best South Tyrolean. The 22-year-old lost 0,82 seconds to his teammate Cazzaniga during his journey. Florian Schieder from Castelrotto, who finished 18th, also collected European Cup points from the young South Tyroleans in the Super-G. Prast and Schieder will be in action next week in the World Cup in Bansko (Bulgaria), where an Alpine Combined, a Super-G and a giant slalom are on the program.

The 14th Sarn European Cup week, however, is history. With Thomas Biesemeyer (USA/Downhill 1), Christof Brandner (Germany/Alpine Combined), Christopher Neumayer (Austria/Downhill 2) and Davide Cazzaniga (Italy/Super-G) there were four different winners from as many different nations.
