The race
Sofia Goggia proves once again how risky and fast moving can be. At 3,037 meters in Val d’Isère, no one is faster than the powerful woman from Bergamo. However: Corinne Suter gets dangerously close to her. The podium is exactly the same as on Friday, only the first two places have been exchanged.
Swiss women
2. Corinne Suter +0.24
9. Michelle Gisin +0.77
11. Lara Gut-Behrami +1.04
13. Priska Nufer +1.21
19. Jasmine Flury +1.70
21. Jasmina Suter +1.99
22. Joana Hählen +2.00
Corinne suter shows a great ride like Friday, takes more than half a second to Goggia in the upper zone. In the technical midsection he loses this advantage, which is not a shame in view of Goggias’ radical and flawless handling. Second place at the end, for which he missed the live price, a calf. But: Suter can live with it. Your downhill start to the season is more than successful! In the end, he told SRF: “It’s incredibly nice to drive the first two races like this. The pressure was there, I’ll be honest. Yesterday was great, now I have tried to go down the stairs better. I’m very satisfied and it’s a lot of fun to drive like this. If someone had told me on Thursday that it would be the first and the second, I would have signed immediately. That gives a lot of confidence for tomorrow because I also did good laps on the Super-G in practice. I just have to take the risk again. “
Lara Gut-Behrami it drives well, but not well enough. It shows perhaps the closest line of all, but it reverses well before each curve. Ultimately, that’s too round, too inconsistent.
You can Joana Hählen praise enough? Lenk’s daredevil has no bruises after her bad fall on Friday, but blue areas on her body. Needless to say, this is a huge disadvantage. Hehlen still takes a chance and crosses the finish line 2 seconds behind; There aren’t many, but there are some important points.
Wow, Michelle Gisin! The Engelbergerin is much more to the limit than on Friday, he seems released and relaxed. This is exactly how Gisin wants to approach the descents: getting closer during training, increasing from one course to another. At the bottom, Gisin is not so consistent on skiing anymore, he loses a bit of body tension. However: after the great technical start, the 27-year-old shows her speed talent impressively, the 77-cent gap is fine.
The rise of giant slalom training Priska nufer It’s apparently worth it, he drives more consistently than he’s been in speed disciplines for a long time. Jasmine Flury can also be satisfied after her long injury is broken as she is nearing the top.
The conditions
Imperial climate in Val d’Isère! That was rarely seen in recent years, when there were many rejections. Slope is grainy, partially icy, just perfect.
That was something to talk about
After her terrible fall on Friday, it is now certain: Nicole Schmidhofer has torn the cruciate ligament and the collateral ligament in her left knee. The 2017 season of the Super G world champion in St. Moritz is over. After all: because the door is a bit more open today for the compression jump, the drivers have fewer problems. Federica Brignone, who crashed in the same place yesterday, does not start this time.
So it goes
Sunday’s Super-G will close this weekend of speed. Corinne Suter, who won the crystal ball last season, wants to get involved again. The race starts at 11:00 am
