Werner Heel, "I can beat Christof Innerhofer"

Werner Heel is ready for the season as protagonist. Positive and convinced of his ability, the blue of St. Martin in twenty-nine Passeier told Neveitalia his feelings, goals and possibilities for the new year's World Cup skiing that awaits him.

What are your goals for this season? The objective is to aim high, try to get back on the podium that I missed last season because I had some problems with the materials. Now I have everything sorted so I'm very confident and happy with how things are going. In the first races I will try to break into the top ten and then slowly improve. I would like to be in good shape from racing in January. How did your training? Very well. Were positive mainly in Argentina. Unfortunately, we encountered several days of bad weather than last year, but in Europe in September, the weather conditions were good, especially on the Stelvio, and also in Austria. Sunday we leave for Canada where we will go to the last week of training and then we start with the races. Do you feel more fit in the super-G and downhill? I can not say, I'll know next week after training in Canada. I certainly feel fit in both disciplines. Italy is focusing on Christof Innerhofer, super-G world champion.All this attention on him discourage you, or are an incentive to give more? It is normal for the spectators, when an athlete gets good results, all pointing at him. I have had this experience during the Olympics when I made three podiums. Personally I can say that because there is a stimulus train together and I know I can beat him. I've already beaten in the past and I can retyping this year. Christof is a very good athlete, is an example for the team, the team is good to have an athlete like him or even as Peter Fill, we learn a lot between us. Think you can fight for one of two cups of specialty? Yes of course, I was close to the cup in the past when I finished third in the overall drop. The opportunities are there if all the factors that are at stake as I play I expect: I would like to have a nice cup at home, maybe more down in supergiant.
