Halfway through the race the American leads, but Holdener and Vlhova are very close. Michelle makes a mistake and is over the second, Curtoni excellent sixth at 1 "11. Second heat at 20.45.

She had said on the eve that she had trained very well lately, being able to devote herself completely to technical disciplines. And the confirmation has arrived on the track, given that Mikaela Shiffrin is ahead of everyone (as in Semmering, where she then finished third) after the first run of the night slalom in Flachau, the fifth specialty round for girls.
All the greats are there, on a “Hermann Maier Weltcup Strecke” where to make the difference, especially on the track designed by Germany, except Michelle Gisin who misses on the penultimate bump and finishes at 1 ”09, in fifth position.
The American, in view of the 2nd heat scheduled at 20.45, sails with only 8 cents on Wendy Holdener, who started with the '1 and a great desire for redemption after not yet collecting podiums this season, and 14 on Petra Vlhova, leader specialty and overall; Katharina Liensberger, who in the second home race seeks the first triumph of her career, loses 33 from Shiffrin and then there is the void, as expected, since except for the mistake of Gisin which makes history in itself, then we find Lysdahl and the Austrians Mair and Truppe already 1 ”46 and 1” 55 respectively away.
In front of them, however, there is an excellent Irene Curtoni, the first of the six blue at the start with the bib 13 and sixth at +1 ”11.
