“I can’t breathe, because I had a lot of pressure on myself after the last races, which didn’t exactly go as I had hoped. And racing in Italy is amazing, my whole family is here, I really race for them and for my team. I knew that on this course I could get a good result, so I tried really hard. And in the big final it was a fight, but I am a fighter and now I am really happy. I really needed this victory,” a relieved and happy Moioli commented after the race.
Maiden World Cup win for Jakob Dusek
Cameron Bolton (AUS), World Champion and quali winner Lucas Eguibar (ESP), Canadian Eliot Grondin and Jakob Dusek from Austria made it into the big final and last heat before Christmas.
Dusek was so fast out of the gate of the big final that he immediately was able to get into the lead with the Junior World Champion 2021 Eliot Grondin right behind him, who tried to do the first passing move going into the left turn on the inside line. But, after this turn, immediately a right turn follows, which was good for Dusek, who then was on the inside line, closing the door on the guys behind him.
The heat was a pretty close pack, nevertheless, World Champion Lucas Eguibar was sitting in fourth position for most of the time until he finally made a pass on Cameron Bolton, edging him off to the last spot.
In the front, Grondin still tried to pass Dusek, but the Austrian simply wouldn’t let him get by. Dusek kept his focus and did some really solid racing, chosing the best lines, making the best moves until the very finishline, claiming his first-ever World Cup victory and only his second career podium (first one was a second place in Big White (CAN) in 2020.
