REPORT OF THE THIRD Time Trial
The third and final time trial was carried out at temperatures Atle more than the first two of the previous days, so with a little snow'' softer, different, but for today have been announced for new low temperatures and cold snow. The tests have certainly said that today's race was a major favorite, Lara Gut, two tough opponents like Tina Weirather and Anna Fenninger, and many outsiders who can find the right day, Stacey Cook, who has excelled in the 2nd training, to Stuhec and Sejersted, very good in the 3rd, not forgetting of course, Maria Riesch, always constant, Tina Maze, "reborn" in the third timed practice, and then again the other American, all of Smith, Dominique Gisin, Nicole Hosp, now more , sprinter slalom skier, always very good, with chest high.
They can do well the Italian, especially Sofia Goggia, the most constant in test and still have to push the whole and Francesca Marsaglia, fourth in the first training, while we always expect a good result from Daniela Merighetti. Elena Curtoni was skiing downhill as he had never done before in his career, the track is perfectly suited to its characteristics, but of course if we need to understand what affect will compete in his mind the terrible flight of the 2nd training run.
Verena Stuffer, whom we thank, we describe in detail the track, thus: "It starts with a plan for about 30 seconds, where the smoothness is important and it is essential to follow the small bumps well built. Get down on the floor with a good time is already a great advantage. then enters There are steep in the "Raptor", I would say a nice ripidone very technical with two doubles, a single and double rooms with 3 other outputs always in counter. Important is to keep a good line, and if you end up low, correct right away because the attacker can do well even if there is some little mistake''. After you have 4 very individual swivel, which resemble more a super-G in which a descent . From here you get into a double which gives you the speed to stick with 3 double humps in the middle and then enter the final plan, pure sliding. A final jump and you get ... fingers crossed! " .
