Pierra Menta 2017 (2/4): Preview

“It has been a fantastic first day,” Séverine Pont-Combe said to the press. “And so will be the second one,” the OC replied. 

The route for the second stage will be quite atypical and this due to the warm conditions up in Areches Beaufort. Tomorrow, the skiers will have to face four major difficulties: a couple of 700-meter hills, followed by a couple of 400-meter hills to then pass by a quite technical 800-meter descent before having to reach the air station by feet. From then, they will have to face the equivalent of two successive vertical kilometers before going for the finish line. 

We cannot wait to see how the women's race goes. The three first pairs are within 30 seconds and this promises quite an interesting battle. Matteo Eydallin will him have to widen the gap with his followers.
