18:54
Dominik Raschner (AUT)
It still works! Dominik Raschner convinces with a courageous appearance and races to 19th place without major mistakes. After all, that is a ray of hope in the largely disappointing ÖSV squad.
18:53
Fabian Himmelsbach (GER)
It’s not enough for Fabian Himmelsbach either! Similar to Rauchfuss, it gets off to a good start on a still quite decent route, but then loses a lot of time when it gets more demanding.
18:51
Julian Rauchfuss (GER)
Julian Rauchfuss was the only German to score points in Val-d’Isère. And even today, the 27-year-old makes a good impression at first. But on the steep slope, Rauchfuss also degrades and slips out of the top 30.
18:42
Anton Tremmel (GER)
The disaster for the DSV continues! Anton Tremmel doesn’t seem to feel comfortable on his skis, is far too hard in his movements and has the slowest time of all athletes who have arrived so far.
18:41
Johannes Strolz (AUT)
Johannes Strolz does it better! With a courageous drive, the 29-year-old races to eleventh place and is thus the best Austrian to date.
18:40
Marc Digruber (AUT)
The next Austrian cannot polish up the so far very modest ÖSV record. Marc Digruber fails in the same place as Feller and Schwarz, but at least manages to make it to the finish. Rank 30 will not be enough for the final.
18:37
Reto Schmidiger (SUI)
Reto Schmidiger is very committed to his 80th World Cup race, but is almost a little too much pressure on the boards. Nothing goes on this slope today and nothing should come of the top 30.
18:32
Noël up and away again
The top 30 have made the first round of the night slalom in Madonna di Campiglio behind them. France’s high-flyer Clément Noël, who is more than half a second ahead of Norwegian Sebastian Foss-Solevåg, is once again right at the front. With the Swede Kristoffer Jakobsen, Dave Ryding from Great Britain, the Alexis Pinturault and the Italian Alex Vinatzer, four other drivers are within a second behind and are fighting for the podium. DSV star Linus Straßer, like the Austrians Manuel Feller and Marco Schwarz and the Swiss Tanguy Nef, unfortunately retired. We will of course keep an eye on what is happening on the Canalone Miramonti and will contact you as soon as something interesting happens.
18:31
Marc Rochat (SUI)
Marc Rochat misjudges himself at the beginning of a transition and loses important speed. 22nd place is at the end of the day. For Rochat, too, it is now time to wait and hope.
18:29
Erik Read (CAN)
Erik Read is doing really well in the flat section above and is on the right track at the top times. Only when it got steep did the Canadian get two blows that threw him a little off course. 15th place is still decent.
18:28
Matej Vidovic (CRO)
Matej Vidovic also shuns the last risk and does not exactly go to work. After all, the Croatian gets through without major mistakes and has a good chance of the second run on the 19.
18:27
Sandro Simonet (SUI)
Sandro Simonet will have to tremble about his participation in the final. After a rather cautious and leisurely ride, the Swiss are initially in 23rd place. Nobody has been slower so far.
18:26
Giuliano Razzoli (ITA)
Cheered on by the home crowd, Giuliano Razzoli descends the slopes. Just like Stefano Gross before, he cannot really release his skis and works his way from gate to gate. From 14th place there is still something going on.
18:24
Stefano Gross (ITA)
The Italians are often a little late and fall too far behind. So he never gets the necessary speed in his run and is clearly behind after a rather discouraged performance.
18:23
Timon Haugan (NOR)
Timon Haugan makes a big mistake when entering the steep slope, thereby robbing himself of the chance of a really good result. Even so, the Norwegian is still enough to make it to the top ten. There was more in it!
18:22
Armand Marchant (BEL)
Armand Marchant keeps the chances of a good placement open with a solid presentation. The Belgian only wobbles briefly once on the steep slope and keeps the gap at two seconds. Much more should hardly be possible now.
18:18
Albert Popov (BUL)
Albert Popov shows how it can be done! The Bulgarian drives aggressively to the bars, pulls his tight line through and races into the top ten.
18:17
Alexandr Khoroshilov (RUS)
What is still going on here? Alexandr Khoroshilov comes down clean at least once and is less than two seconds behind. In the direction of Top Tenn there is always something possible.
18:15
Tanguy Nef (SUI)
Tanguy Nef avoids an early elimination at the top, but the journey remains shaky and shortly before the end the Swiss missed a goal. Nef is out!
18:15
Manfred Mölgg (ITA)
Manfred Mölgg doesn’t really come in at all and is consistently late. The 39-year-old veteran will also have a hard time reaching the final.
18:13
Fabio Gstrein (AUT)
The heavily degrading slope apparently no longer allows for really fast runs. Especially in the lower part, all athletes lose significantly. Fabio Gstrein also falls behind there, but is currently the best Austrian in eleventh place.
18:11
Luca Aerni (SUI)
Luca Aerni was also quick in Val-d’Isère, but was eliminated. The Swiss are spared that today, but he is still not really satisfied. A mistake when entering the steep slope costs almost a whole second and a good starting position.
18:10
Filip Zubcic (CRO)
Filip Zubcic is also broad-chested after his podium finish in Val-d’Isère. But you don’t see much of that today. The Croat is way too cautious and gets a whopping two seconds.
18:07
Loïc Meillard (SUI)
Loïc Meillard cannot approve the skis at all this time either and puts far too much pressure on his equipment. The Swiss has recently concentrated on the faster disciplines and the slalom technique has obviously suffered from that. Is that enough for the top 30?
18:06
Alex Vinatzer (ITA)
Alex Vinatzer has already demonstrated his good form this winter. The Italian is still doing well today. With full risk it is incredibly aggressive into the target slope, but here he easily loses his balance and thus time. But something is still possible from rank six.
18:03
Michael Matt (AUT)
After all, an Austrian finally crosses the finish line. Michael Matt is clearly not satisfied with almost two seconds behind after a faulty drive.
18:02
Daniel Yule (SUI)
Almost the next failure! Daniel Yule almost deviates from the course right at the beginning and has to save himself acrobatically. That succeeds, but all flow is gone and it will only be a ride for the winner of 2018 and 2019.
18:01
David Ryding (GBR)
David Ryding is also at the front! The Briton sneaks down the Canalone Miramonti with feeling and takes the goals almost playfully. In the last few meters, Ryding gives away a little after a slight wobble, but still has every chance in fourth place.
17:59
Kristoffer Jakobsen (SWE)
Kristoffer Jakobsen should be able to handle this course. After all, his coach put this on. The Swede works more with his upper body than Clément Noël, but is also fast. Third place for Jakobsen.
17:58
Linus Straßer (GER)
Geez! Linus Straßer had planned so much for this slalom. And then he slips away at the fifth gate and misses the curve. The next failure!
17:57
Victor Muffat Jeandet (FRA)
Victor Muffat Jeandet does not come close to the time of his leading compatriot. The 32-year-old can never really let his skis go and struggles to reach the finish line.
17:55
Manuel Feller (AUT)
The next Austrian is on the way. Manuel Feller does not get into the race well either and is always a tad late. In the hairpin just before the finish line he also threads it to make matters worse and is out too!
17:54
Marco Schwarz (AUT)
Marco Schwarz is not quite back in shape from last winter, but has recently improved. The Austrian has problems today and is constantly losing. And then, shortly before the finish line, Black also pulls in and is eliminated!
17:52
Clément Noël (FRA)
Now comes the Dominator of Val-d’Isère! Clément Noël is also furiously on the move in Trentino and conjures up the next dream run in the snow. The Frenchman is walking close to the poles and flies down the slope almost nimbly. Half a second ahead for Noël!
17:51
Henrik Kristoffersen (NOR)
Henrik Kristoffersen is full of self-confidence again after his victory in the giant slalom in Alta Badia. The Norwegian attacks from the start, but overdoes it a little and edged up twice. Kristoffersen loses a full eight tenths to his leading compatriot.
17:50
Sebastian Foss Solevåg (NOR)
Sebastian Foss Solevåg has almost all experts on the list. After his second place last year, the Norwegian wants to move up the front this time. Foss Solevåg is also slightly cocky, but is otherwise very fluid and brisk. Guide!
17:48
Ramon Zenhäusern (SUI)
Ramon Zenhäusern makes two technical mistakes on the short course set this time by the Swedish coach and has to pull the brakes twice. That costs a lot of speed and with it the chance of top time.
17:46
Alexis Pinturault (FRA)
Let’s go! Alexis Pinturault is on the way and masters the flat start without any problems. When entering the steep slope, the French wobbles briefly, but still comes down safely and sets the first guide time in 46.53 seconds.
17:44
It’s about to start
The conditions are fine that evening. There isn’t too much snow, but it’s nice and handy at minus four degrees. Alexis Pinturault from France is about to open the first run.
17:36
The Swiss contingent
Team Suisse is led in Madonna di Campiglio by Daniel Yule, who only missed the podium in Val-d’Isère by four hundredths. Luca Aerni, Ramon Zenhäusern, Loic Meillard, Sandro Simonet and Tanguy Nef can also be expected to finish in the top ten. The Swiss team is completed by Marc Rochat, Reto Schmidiger and Noel von Grünigen.
17:30
Austria without Hirschbühl
After Katharina Liensberger and Christian Mitter, there is the next corona case in the ÖSV camp. Christian Hirschbühl, who recently celebrated his first World Cup victory in the parallel race in Lech / Zürs, tested positive for Covid-19 and thus missed today’s slalom. The hopes of the Austrians rest primarily on Manuel Feller, who recently convinced at the giant slalom in Alta Badia, and Marco Schwarz. Michael Matt, Fabio Gstrein, Dominik Raschner, Joshua Sturm, Johannes Strolz and Marc Digruber are also there.
17:27
Straßer wants the Olympic standard
From a German point of view, the first slalom in Val-d’Isère was a disappointment. Only Julian Rauchfuss finished in 24th place in the points. Linus Straßer missed the final after several driving errors and wants to get into the top 15 today to work on the Olympic norm. In addition, Anton Tremmel, David Ketterer and Fabian Himmelsbach take to the track for the DSV.
17:18
Second slalom of the winter
The classic on the Canalone Miramonti is only the second slalom that the technicians complete this winter. In the first goal run in Val-d’Isère, local hero Clément Noël outclassed the competition and won by almost a second and a half. The Frenchman is still an absolute top favorite today. Above all, the strong Norwegians around Henrik Kristoffersen and Sebastian Foss-Solevåg, who landed a double victory here last year, want to dispute the victory. Kristoffer Jakobsen from Sweden and the Croatian Filip Zubčić already stood on the slalom podium this season.
17:14
Warm welcome
Hello and welcome to the night slalom in Madonna di Campiglio! 69 riders will start the first round in Trentino from 5:45 p.m.
