Celestial Liensberger in the 1st run of the slalom, Vlhova is very far away but ... in the race

Slalom of the Lenzerheide finals (on a track in shameful conditions), the Austrian who can take the specialty cup clearly leads. Lysdahl at 7 tenths, Shiffrin at 9, Petra sixth at 1.84 but 15th place will be enough for the overall. Best Azzurri Curtoni (in the last race) in the top ten.

A perfect first heat for Katharina Liensberger, with the dream of adding the specialty cup to the world gold in Cortina. The formidable Austrian seems to be very close to the enterprise, who in the slalom of the Lenzerheide finals is exalted once again (after the first victory in the CdM conquered in Are), trimming 7 tenths to Kristin Lysdahl, who makes the most of the bib n ° 2 on a track that was destroyed very soon (and there is no shortage of controversy on the preparation by the organization), also remaining ahead of Mikaela Shiffrin, never in great pace and third at 90 cents from Liensberger, to whom it will be enough to win, if Vlhova did not have to finish behind him, to win the crystal ball in the discipline. The Slovakian, in fact, starts with the number 6 (already devastating in terms of the track) and immediately makes a mistake on the steep start, finishing sixth at 1 "84 from the leader, but at least in a general perspective the road is marked, since she will just have to close in 15 to toast with an early game and write history. Before Petra, there are St-Germain (who started with the '1) fourth at 1 "20 and Gisin fifth at 1" 24. (updating)
