Today, on a slope that looked more like a supergigantone like the one in Bulgaria five years ago, Andrea responded with bib number 29 on the track to the whole world by triumphing in Crans-Montana and mocking the woman who had just taken his place on the throne Olympic super-G, her compatriot Anna Fenninger, who was looking forward to the long-awaited first victory down to 15 cents and instead had to settle for second place, just like in Altenmarkt-Zauchensee last January, even then mocked by a compatriot, Elisabeth Gö , rgl.
