A long weekend at the legendary Chuenisbärgli

The giant slalom on Chuenisbärgli is probably - next to Alta Badia - the most difficult in the World Cup. The steep final slope in particular demands everything from the athletes every year. This year there are two giant slalom races on the program in the Bernese Oberland (Friday and Saturday).

From a South Tyrolean perspective, Riccardo Tonetti, Alex Hofer and Hannes Zingerle will be at the start. Stefano Baruffaldi, Giovanni Borsotti, Luca De Aliprandini, Filippo Della Vite, Giovanni Franzoni and Roberto Nani are also there. The Azzurri's hopes rest primarily on De Aliprandini, who was in the lead after the first round in Adelboden last year. However, the Nonsberger was eliminated in the final. Teammate Borsotti was in second place at the halfway point of the race, giving Italy a completely surprising double lead. But he also showed nerves in the second run and fell back to 1th place. Slalom specialists are desperate for compensation After the race in Zagreb went wrong on Wednesday (Tommaso Sala finished 24th as the best Azzurro), the slalom specialists will have to make amends on Sunday. The South Tyroleans Alex Vinatzer, Simon Maurberger (he was eliminated just like Vinatzer) and Manfred Mölgg were unable to qualify for the second run in Zagreb. They have proven several times in the past that they can do better. Adelboden has often been a good place for Simon Maurberger in the past. © pentaphoto

The local hopes rest primarily on Vinatzer, who has already shown a lot in this year's slalom season with places 4 and 3. From the Azzurri's perspective, Stefano Gross, Federico Liberatore, Giuliano Razzoli and Tommaso Sala will also be there on Sunday. Just like the Enneberger Tobias Kastlunger, who came 4th at the European Cup Slalom in Val Cenis on Thursday , and Riccardo Tonetti from Bolzano, who will tackle all 3 races in Adelboden. The program in Adelboden Friday: Giant slalom (10.15:13.15 a.m./XNUMX:XNUMX p.m.)

Saturday: Giant slalom (10.30:13.30 a.m./XNUMX:XNUMX p.m.)

Sunday: Slalom (10.30:13.30 a.m. / XNUMX:XNUMX p.m.)
