& Ldquo; Wanted opponents for Anna Fenninger and Marcel Hirscher & rdquo ;, we wanted holder our presentation of the new season of alpine skiing. Instead, we have to split the two presentations due to the serious right knee injury that & egrave; Today the 26 year old was the victim of Salzburg.

Suddenly the World Cup women & egrave; It was decapitated, because in the season that begins Saturday will miss the stars of one of the most & ugrave; extraordinary duels in the history of alpine skiing that & egrave; It lasted until the & rsquo; last heat of & rsquo; last race, the giant M & eacute; ribel, and what & egrave; Tina Maze, stops for sabbatical, and, of course, Anna Fenninger. Who can & ograve; collect the & rsquo; legacy & agrave; s & rsquo; Austrian? We try to do five names, in alphabetical order.
Lara Gut - The 24 year old from Ticino has the & rsquo; et & agrave; fair and & egrave; one that potentially has the greatest chance & agrave; to hit the target because & eacute; pu & ograve; do very well in three specialties & agrave; and quest & rsquo; year & moreover will not have agrave; even the & rsquo; s obsession & rsquo; gold in the great event to win at all costs, his problem & egrave; the lack of continuity & agrave; because & eacute; in many, too many occasions, tends to overdo it. The feeling & egrave; that if he does not win this & rsquo; year the World Cup could not win it ever more & ugrave ;.
Viktoria Rebensburg - A little-publicized than many of his opponents who are much more & ugrave; photogenic her the 26 year old German though it has been injured at the end of last season & egrave; coached well and & egrave; date very fit, proved he could go fast in speed & agrave; and if he returns to be dominant or almost giant has really big chance.
Mikaela Shiffrin - If the 20 year-old Colorado starts doing the phenomenon in giant there n & rsquo; & egrave; for nobody. However colleague Gianmario Bonzi raceskimagazine reported that Mikaela esordir & agrave; in super-G in Lake Louise on Dec. 6. Everything depends on whether the girl will insist & agrave; in an effort speed & agrave; and, if insister & agrave ;, & agrave better how to be; to manage the forces to avoid losing enamel especially in slalom. In any case, if gi & agrave; Quest & rsquo; & agrave centrer year; the target his will & agrave; the first of a long series of crystal balls absolute.
Lindsey Vonn - The US has a chance & agrave; to dominate again in downhill and super-G but his condition is a & rsquo; absolute unknown. Of course, if he came back in control of the speed & agrave; and did valuable points in giant, in principle she & egrave; l & rsquo; only this pokerissimo of champions already know & agrave; how to win the cup absolute, since the notice board has already & agrave; four.
Tina Weirather - Pi & ugrave; much like Lara Gut has a chance & agrave; to do well in three specialties & agrave ;, with a bit & rsquo; less knockout blow but with a bit & rsquo; pi & ugrave; of continuity & agrave; than the Swiss. Sure & egrave; who at 26 he has already & agrave; had a quantity & agrave; industrial injuries and stay healthy will & agrave; condition necessary to point to the Great Cup.
We add something that concerns the azzurree that so of course he regards the general Cup. Besides Fenninger Maze and not see each other again on the track, among others, Nicole Hosp, Kathrin Zettel, Andrea Fischbacher, Dominique Gisin, Jessica Lindell Vikarby and many other not because we name & eacute; The list of athletes withdrew before this season, or on sabbatical in the case of Slovenia, & egrave; long. For this the Italian must, repeat, must, make the leap to quality & agrave; especially in giant slalom (where some of the athletes, given the numerous defections, could possibly fight for the cup of specialty & agrave;) but maybe even in the super-G or downhill, although the speed & agrave; l & rsquo; et & agrave; media & egrave; pi & ugrave; high (not in slalom where the talent or not there are or are not expressed more & ugrave; with continuity & agrave; as Chiara Costazza or are stuck for too long as Michela Azzola). And the jump in quality & agrave; It means making podiums but also, possibly, victories. Gi & agrave; win three, as in the last seven seasons the Italians have conquered the misery of two, would gi & agrave; a good starting point as many of the girls are still young or very young.
As for Anna, the regret not to see the beautiful queen of the ski track in the season that is about to start & egrave; so, moreover, it was a & rsquo; athlete still physically intact but unfortunately in alpine skiing at a competitive level l & rsquo; & egrave injury; always around the & rsquo; angle. Gi & agrave; last spring for her was bad for the diatribe with federsci Austrian, then the problem to the patellar tendon in his right knee, the same as today & egrave; completely blown up. At his age & agrave; a & rsquo; the other queen of skiing, Katja Seizinger, abbandon & ograve; l & rsquo; racing after a serious injury, but in both knees. We are confident that this will not be & agrave; a final farewell because & eacute; Anna has the head and the right determination to recover and return to the races in the season 2016-2017 and sincerely hope that can do it.
