Today's task is 66km. It is a mix of all kind of flying including flats, low ridges, mountains, lake.
Even if as usual the gaggle is huge around the Monte Cornizzolo, different options did create bid difference very soon. Clever pilots succeed to get very early to the first turn point 10km to the right of the take off. Alex Hoffer was already leading.But the most interesting part was the last few kilometers where many option throught the mountain or throught the flatland where possible and changed the classification.
More than 30 pilots are reaching goal.
Alex Hofer (CH) wins the task followed by Marco Arnold (F) and Stéphane André (F).
For the women, Petra Krausova (CZ) reaches 63.9km and is followed by Naomi Ventura (CH) and Caroline Brille (F).
The World Cup ranking does not change: Alex Hofer (CH) still leads the World Cup ranking, and is still followed by Scotty Marion (USA) and Jean-Marc Caron (F).
Petra Krausova (CZ) is now the first women in the World Cup ranking, followed by Caroline Brille (F) and Cherie Silvera (USA).
