The Courchevel-Méribel World Cup finals begin, which together will also organize the 2023 world championships, with the descents taking center stage on the first day of racing on Wednesday.
The women will take to the track on the "Eclipse" at 11.30 tomorrow (live TV on Eurosport 1 and Rai Sport) and all the attention will be at the start, for the challenge to the specialty cup disputed between Sofia Goggia and Corinne Suter: the Bergamo, who leads the standings with a margin of 75 points and would already be certain of his third crystal ball with a 10th place, chose number 5, followed by the Swiss who opted to start first, or with 3.
Ester Ledecka will inaugurate the race, who did well in practice and is one of the many candidates for success; like Romane Miradoli, who seems to be doing very well here and will start right between Suter and Goggia, while the Austrians (Siebenhofer 7, Puchner 9, Scheter 10, then with high numbers Tippler, Raedler, Reisinger and the world champion jr Egger) appeared in difficulties in training. We will have to pay maximum attention to Mowinckel (n ° 13) but also to Gisin (14) and Gut-Behrami (18), as naturally to a very fast Mikaela Shiffrin in today's test.
Number 21 for the American, who will then see Petra Vlhova (24) go down shortly after, who must recover 56 points in the overall. Five blue at the gate: after Goggia, here is Nadia Delago with 11, even if the Val Gardena has suffered a lot in these two days, then Brignone (19) and Curtoni (20) who can have chances on such a technical track . Finally Marta Bassino, who will come out of the gate 22nd out of the 27 registered athletes.

Scheib rientra in Europa dopo 29 giorni tra Argentina e Cile: Un lavoro molto buono. Sarà lei la favorita a Soelden
La detentrice della Coppa del Mondo di gigante, che proprio dall'opening sul Rettenbach ha iniziato a costruire lo scorso anno quel trionfo, ha diviso a metà il lavoro tra focus sulla sua disciplina a Ushuaia e poi velocità sulle nevi cilene pensando al super-g. Rifinitura a Pitztal e poi direttamente a Soelden, il set-up finale lo definiremo in quel momento.
