The Aosta Valley, fifth in the first giant of Kranjska Gora, is far from satisfied. Goggia: "A test on such hard snow, in the second I recalibrated my pitch and I feel I am growing".

If Marta Bassino laughs, from the top of her third seasonal triumph with a new magic in the giant of Kranjska Gora, the very tough challenge on Podkoren left Federica Brignone dry, down from the podium she had found in Courchevel, in the last challenge between the wide doors before the cancellation of Semmering.
The first heat of the Austrian giant had revealed the current difficulties of the Aosta Valley in this discipline, today's fifth place does not at all satisfy the World Cup holder (both giant and absolute), who spoke clearly to the FISI press office in the post race, already projecting on the second giant expected on Sunday. "I'm not confident and you can see, in the race I lack the confidence in skiing which instead I fully succeed in training - confides Fede - Sunday the goal will be to find the right sensations".
She finished in the 15, suffering a lot in the first heat and then competing in a decent second, a Sofia Goggia who instead looks at the glass half full: "In the first one I really struggled, when it's so hard I can't understand the my materials.
It was a sort of test to understand how to behave in the second heat, where I recalibrated the shot. I'm not skiing as I would like in giant yet, but every lap I do gives me more confidence ”.
