She is probably considered the number 1 favorite, considering that her form is growing compared to the difficult start of the season and that, for the last stage of the World Cup before the Olympics, in Garmisch-Partenkirchen, there are really no many protagonists of speed, from Sofia Goggia to Breezy Johnson, from Lara Gut-Behrami to Ester Ledecka, Michelle Gisin, Ragnhild Mowinckel and also Mikaela Shiffrin and Petra Vlhova in key general classification.
Corinne Suter sets the best time in the first test of the descent on Kandahar, which will be staged on Saturday morning (sixth seasonal event of the specialty), albeit with just 6 hundredths of a margin on Kira Weidle, who skies very well even in the most technical section and wants gamble for the chance of the first seasonal success as the world champion. Jasmine Flury, in excellent condition lately, is third at 3 tenths with Romane Miradoli fourth at 53, then she goes beyond the second behind to find the first trio of Austrians, with Huetter ahead of Tippler and Fest, but in a handkerchief of cents here is also Wiles, Nadia Delago ninth at 1 ”40 and Haehlen.
The young woman from Val Gardena, also due to the characteristics of the track, which saw her very fast in the first part of the most sliding part, clearly appears to be the blue tip for the descent after the last great results (excluding Cortina), but her sister Nicol is also was quite brilliant, at least up to the section of Hell (the most technical of Kandahar), finally closing 15 ^ at 1 "76, between Ramona Siebenhofer and Mirjam Puchner, two athletes who can attack the leadership of Goggia in perspective, of course if Sofia did not have to make it then for the races at the end of February in Crans-Montana.
Elena Curtoni suffered a lot in the sliding sections, today 18th at 1 "98 and with just 9 cents on Federica Brignone, 21st and calm thinking about the races, with Melesi at 2" 55, Marsaglia at 2 "65 and Pichler at 3" 34 .
On Friday, again at 11.30, the second and last test.
