Il Canada fa saltare il banco e si prende due podi pesantissimi ai Mondiali di Sankt Moritz. Nel superG maschile la medaglia d’oro è stata vinta da Erik Guay, con bronzo a Manuel Osborne-Paradis. Affonda l’Italia che non va oltre la nona e undicesima posizione con Dominik Paris e Peter Fill.

L’ITALIA RESTA A GUARDARE – La squadra italiana anche oggi resta a guardare. E lo fa dalla decima posizione. Dominik Paris sbaglia pesantemente due linee sui salti e finisce nono, Peter Fill è undicesimo, «una gara che considero in parte positiva perché in superG non avevo buone sensazioni». Diciottesimo Mattia Casse e ventitreesimo Emanuele Buzzi.
I DELUSI – Tra i delusi, oltre agli italiani, c’è sicuramente l’altro norvegese Aleksander Aamodt Kilde, che prima ha assaporato la doppietta, poi il terzo posto e, invece, è finito quarto, a tre centesimi dalla medaglia. Cose che bruciano. Sesta posizione per Alexis Pinturault, subito dietro a Kriechmayr.
