OVERWHELMING
Trio of the Andorran Ireneu Esteve in the 42nd edition of the Grand Prix Sportful of roller skis. But behind him, at the finish line in Croce d’Aune, our Elia Barp delle Fiamme Gialle signs the feat, finishing in second position and leaving behind champions of the caliber of Francesco De Fabiani and Federico Pellegrino, respectively fourth and fifth . The female success is achieved by Francesca Franchi, who precedes Caterina Ganz and Ilenia Defrancesco. This is a summary of the restart of the race organized by Sportful Nordic Skiing, in collaboration with Polisportiva Sovramonte and Enal Sport Villaga. A total of 300 competitors at the start, including the youth categories. The work of the volunteers is also commendable.
THE RACE
Ireneu Esteve Altimiras autographs her third consecutive success, along the 10 kilometers of track between the Pedavena brewery and the Croce d’Aune pass. In 2019 he had even signed the new race record, stopping the clock even in 30.13.4. This time he was “satisfied” to finish in 30.48.3.
Behind him, one minute and 14 seconds behind, here is the super surprise of the day. The Belluno Elia Barp managed to put the necessary gap between himself and his partner of many relay races Fabio Longo, finishing second on the finish line in 32.03.2 against his friend’s 32.06.4. Therefore, the growth of Barp continues, increasingly competitive at a high level. Off the podium the two blue stars of the international fund, or both Francesco De Fabiani and Federico Pellegrino, who took the opportunity to test their condition in view of the important appointments of a season including the highly anticipated Olympics.
Fiamme Gialle on the male podium with Barp and first and second in the female, where Francesca Franchi in 37.51.6 anticipates Caterina Ganz by 6.7 seconds. To complete the finishing trio, here is Ilenia De Francesco of the Army in 38.55.2.
