Scheduled for 2023, the nocturnal exhibition slalom in the Swiss resort of Crans-Montana has already been cancelled. The Valais organizers want to “lead by example” in the context of energy restrictions.
After three rather successful first editions, in a new format, and the domination of Clément Noël (two successes and a 3e place), the Crans-Montana exhibition slalom will not take place in January 2023. A decision once morest a backdrop of energy restrictions for the Swiss resort, which will host the Worlds in 2027.
” Lead by example “
“If the women’s World Cup and European Cup races will take place as planned, Crans-Montana wants to set an example and cancels its night slalom this winter, write the Valais organizers on social networks. Due to the energy restrictions requested at all levels, the men’s invitational event will not take place in January 2023. The decision was certainly difficult to make, but it allows the Valais Races Organizing Committee to prove its sensitivity to the issues of the coming winter and to environmental and sustainability issues in general. »
