Hirscher's demonstration of power in Schladming – Mölgg on course for the top ten

A fabulous time by Marcel Hirscher characterized the first round of the night classic on the Planail in Schladming. At his “home World Cup”, the 29-year-old from Salzburg once again appeared as if he was from another planet. For Hirscher it is a “home game” as he grew up in Annaberg im Lammertal, just 70 kilometers from Schladmng. And like in a “home game” he has so far dismantled his competition.

The lead over the second-placed Swiss Daniel Yule is 0,99 seconds, the French co-favorite Alexis Pinturault is even a second behind Hirscher. For the three-time Schladming winner Henrik Kristoffersen, the winning streak has already started; the Norwegian is 1,15 seconds behind Hirscher in fourth place.

Mölgg loses in the lower part Manfred Mölgg from Enneberg with start number 8 was able to keep up fairly well in the upper part of the route, but lost a lot of time in the middle and lower parts of the route and crossed the finish line 1,81 seconds behind Hirscher. This was enough for 9th place, meaning Mölgg confidently qualified for the second run and is fighting for a top ten place.

The young Alex Vinatzer from Val Gardena made an exclamation mark. Starting 37th, he showed a strong performance and took 16th place (+2,53). This means the 19-year-old will also be taking part in the second run. Maurberger, Bacher and Tonetti are no longer there There was nothing to gain for Simon Maurberger. The Ahrntaler scored after just a few goals and was eliminated. Fabian Bacher from Ratschings was also eliminated.

Riccardo Tonetti also didn't have a good day and clearly missed qualifying for the decisive round of the top 30 with 51st place (+4,83).

Things didn't go well for the other “Azzurri” either. Stefano Gross from Moena started quickly and with a lot of risk, but he was able to get back to it after a few goals. Giulano Razzoli also didn't really get going during his run, slipped on the finish slope and is in 30th place (+3,50).

The second round begins at 20.45:XNUMX p.m. The results of the first round Pos Name Country Time 1. Marcel Hirscher TUE 52,29 sec. 2. Daniel Yule SUI +0,99 3. Alexis Pinturault FRA +1,00 4.
