He broke through over 1400 points, closing with 160 points of margin on Lara Gut-Behrami, who saw the dream of her second World Cup go out with the cancellation of the fast races of these Lenzerheide finals, but the absolute crystal ball conquered by Petra Vlhova is the most deserved there could be this season, she who has fought in every discipline (participating in all races), getting on the podium in three specialties and winning six times, with the slalom cup only vanished at the last test. Yesterday a page of history was written, with the triumph of the 25-year-old Slovakian led by a largely Italian staff, with Livio Magoni at the helm, today the delivery of the "coppone" has arrived in her hands and from tomorrow there will be a big party in Bratislava and surroundings, with Petra flying home and then engaged in the promotional tour that the government itself wanted for her, in the various cities of the country. "It was a very long season, with ups and downs of course, but we did a huge job to win this cup which is something wonderful - Vlhova's words in the official interview with the FIS - It was my true goal of this year, since the beginning of the season, but it was really difficult to manage the four disciplines, I also scored important points on the descent. There has always been pressure, because I have put it on myself, and the complicated moments there have been like that of January with the difficulties encountered in a giant. I learned a lot from all of these situations, and I realized that you always have to fight and risk to get what you want. Making the history of my country on a sporting level is a source of great pride, now we can really cheer. All together".
