Tricolor fireworks during the men’s slalom of the European Cup finals, this Tuesday in Narvik, Norway. Steven Amiez finished 2nd and won his nominative ticket for the next World Cup. Hugo Desgrippes takes his first podium (3rd).
He didn’t crack. Arrived in Narvik in second position in the general classification of the European Slalom Cup, Steven Amiez did the job until the end this Tuesday during the final race.
Not really impressive in the first round (9th at 0”97 from Salarich), the Savoyard was very solid in the final explanation (3rd in qualifying). While many contenders for victory went to fault, he held his ground. Only the Spaniard Joaquim Salarich, with a hell of a finish, was able to contain his comeback.
Amiez thus offers his 5th podium of the season on the continental circuit and finishes second to the Norwegian Gunleiksrud in the final classification, winning his nominative ticket for next season in the World Cup. Mission accomplished.
