Fifteen men now, who will become 72 in the days next to the races, managed by Franco Scotton, the executive producer. People can hardly understand, when sitting in front of a television, how much work there is behind those few hours of live broadcasting. Franco Scotton explains: "We will document the races with 23 cameras plus two "super slow "and one for "slow motion", those that allow to see the tiniest details in slow motion in a more exciting way. In addition, at the big bend there will be another special camera hanging from a pole, as well as two "giraffe" in other parts of the track."

Trestles to mount to support cameras, all the equipment to move along the slope, 18.000 meters of cables to be laid. “At this stage of preparation  - continues Scotton - it will be no  less than 80 hours of work to prepare a slope like the Olympia delle Tofane for the shooting live television, and the secret is a well-rehearsed team, engineers working together for years. To bring up the equipment we use the helicopter and snowcats."

Once the equipment will be installed, it will be the turn of the technical tests. "The first test will be on Wednesday, when the organizers will drop the first forerunners to check  the slope - explained Scotton -, our final run through  will be on Thursday at the first official training, while on Friday the second test will already be broadcast live by Eurosport."

Good job. All we can do is to wait for the show.
