The Italian Winter Sports Federation between yesterday and today released the list of those who will take part in the opening giants of the 2023-2024 World Cup in Soelden.

On Saturday on the Rettenbach glacier in the women’s giant slalom it will be the turn of seven girls: Marta Bassino, Federica Brignone, Elena Curtoni, Sofia Goggia, Roberta Melesi, Elisa Platino (who has a permanent place for having placed third in the specialty ranking of the past European Cup) and Asja Zenere.

On Sunday, however, the men’s giant slalom will feature eight boys: Giovanni Borsotti, Luca De Aliprandini, Filippo Della Vite, Giovanni Franzoni, Tobias Kastlunger, Simon Maurberger, Alex Vinatzer and Hannes Zingerle. The two heats are scheduled at 10 a.m. and 1 p.m. for both races.
