Even if the weather did threaten for part of the day, riders were able to do their first runs on a particularly dry Italian track.
Very technical and especially so compared to previous years, it proved difficult to comprehend for many riders, as potential lines are plentiful.
A long 24 hours at the office for the riders and their staff before qualifying later today.

In timed training, Amaury Pierron managed the best time (3: 48: 443). Johannes Von Klebelsberg was quick too finishing in 8th place. He was closely followed by Baptiste Pierron in 13th.
Dylan Levesque, Remi Thirion and Jack Reading followed each other down the hill finishing 23rd, 24th and 25th respectively.

In women's category, Mariana Salazar finished 10th followed by her teammate Monika Hrastnik in 11th.

As always since the beginning of the 2019 World Cup season, Thibaut Daprela came 1st. The title is getting closer!

Luke Mumford scored a great 5th.

Qualifications, maybe in the rain, today!
