Ski: Pinturault wins combined Bormio, the slalom betrays Paris

The French Alexis Pinturault confirmed himself as the best combinatist in the world, also winning the combined Bormio, the last 2019 cdm race. For him, at 28, it is the 26th career victory, obtained with a total time of 2.32.56. According to the Norwegian Aleksander Kilde (2.33.07) and third the Swiss Loic Meillard (2.33.12). Riccardo Tonetti from Bolzano is the best blue, 17 / o after the super-G and fourth at the end in 2.34.43. Unlucky race for Dominik Paris, who was second at three cents from Kilde after the quick test but then two mistakes in special relegated him beyond the twentieth place .
However, the South Tyrolean had to give Kilde the lead in the general classification he had yesterday.
A place among the five best, if not better, would certainly have been within Paris's reach after the exploit in Superg. But then Domme made a mistake finishing long, with an error repeated shortly after. In any case, Paris brought the race to a close, even if it was very late: it closed back, in 2.38.37, to the applause of the many fans after his yet another brace on the Stelvio. Behind Paris in the ranking for Italy there is then Guglielmo Bosca in 1.3.79. The next stage of the world cup, after a short break for New Year's Eve, will be in Zagreb, on the Monte dell'orso: special slalom in the afternoon of Sunday 5 January.
