Ski Cross World Cup about to start in Val di Fassa. No qualifying runs, instead the whole field moved into heats, the first round of which were yesterday.
See, FIS, you CAN run a bracket of 32 in the women's event when you want to!

Slight delay as Rohrweck is evacuated off course after his crash (hope he's alright!) before the women's small final.
Fanny Smith takes it out to finish 5th, followed by Phelan, and Grillet Aubert, with Berger Sabbatel DNFing.

First men's semi-final sees the Italian duo of Simone Deromedis and Edoardo Zorzi into the big final. Good start for the boys in a home Olympic season.

Hoffos actually finished second in each of the final three events last season.

Not sure if that was strategic by Courtney Hoffos to hang back Bradbury-style, but it worked as Smith and Berger Sabbatel got all tangled up with each other on the last negative turn and allowed Hoffos to coast through into second spot behind Maier.

Sandra Naeslund and Mylene Ballet Baz into the big final, Britt Phelan and Jade Grillet Aubert into the small final.
Got some cool helmet cam footage from Phelan during that heat. Not sure if I want it live during the race, but definitely interesting to watch.

Photo finish in the 3rd heat! Rohrweck v Tchiknavorian for 1st and 2nd.
They'll both qualify anyway, but Rohrweck takes top spot.

You don't even need to go to 32 skiers; just qualify 24 and do eight heats of three skiers in the first round.

You know what I hate though? This 16-skier bracket for the women. Event is going to be over before it's begun, even with the men's races in between.

France's Marielle Berger Sabbatel and Canada's Courtney Hoffos advance from the final heat; Saskja Lack running wide on the last turn opened things up for Hoffos.
I like Saskja. But I like Courtney too.

French duo Jade Grillet Aubert and Mylene Ballet Baz progress from the second heat. Bit of an upset to not see Jole Galli progress; could maybe even say the same for Talina Gantenbein, heat was turned on its head a bit.

You wouldn't even know Naeslund was out last season injured. Back like she never left.

Britt Phelan absolutely sending it up the inside on the negative turn and getting away with it to finish 2nd behind Sandra Naeslund.
Good; I didn't stay up until 12:15am to watch Canadians finish 3rd and 4th in the same heat.
Veronika Redder gave them all they could handle though.

Thinking we might see a slightly different line into one negative turn that's been giving people problems; going tight inside line has looked particularly tricky at times.
Johannes Rohrweck rides it out to win his heat ahead of Melvin Tchiknavorian though.

Reece Howden crashes out in the opening heat of the season. Less than a minute in and chaos already.
Also we've got Australian 2022 Olympic semi-finalist (and closing ceremony flagbearer) Sami Kennedy as the commentator!
