Remaking the show for a mainstream American viewership will be a challenge.

Early in the second run, he lagged slightly behind his pal Jure Kosir of Slovenia. Then, under the eyes of 5.5 million Italian TV watchers, La Bomba proved as good as his name. He blasted into the steep final leg and cut his arcs sharply in his gate-crashing style. He ended with a composite time of 2:21.96, 0.07 sec. faster than Kosir...
