Hi Victor,

1.) the third value of each point shall depend on the first two?
     InterpolatingPolynomial[data,{x,y}]
     would be correct, if not
2.) the input is in wrong format. Map {Most@#,Last@#}& onto data
3.) all the middle values of your points are the same.
     so InterpolatingPolynomial[data[[All,{1,3}]],{x}]
     should be sufficient.

Cheers, Peter
