Dopo l'esplosivo esordio di Davos, 2° nella 15km in tecnica libera, Maurice Manificat dimostra che i problemi alla schiena sono completamente superati. In previsione del Tour de Ski, la stella del fondo francese ha eseguito un test di efficienza nell'ultima giornata di FIS Opa Cup in Valdidentro, vincendo la 15km classica con partenza in linea.

Maicol Rastelli ha provato a tenere il passo del fuoriclasse per metà gara. Il valtellinese, nella sua tecnica, è stato bravo a portare a casa il 2° posto dopo che gli avversari erano rientrati. Nella volata della truppa giunta a 47"5 dal vincitore, ha battuto lo svizzero Beda Klee, 3°, e Valentin Chauvin, 4°.

Deludente la prestazione degli altri azzurri in cerca di convocazione per il Tour de Ski che, scorrendo la classifica, non hanno dimostrato di avere un ritmo da Coppa del Mondo.

Ottimo invece il comportamento dello junior Luca Del Fabbro, 4°, vicinissimo al podio occupato, nell'ordine, dai tedeschi Florian Knopf e Jakob Milz, e dal francese Jules Chappaz.
