Friday 9 December 2016 3 minutes reading time
These Austrian at the start in Saturday's giant:
Stephanie BRUNNER (1994) KAPPAURER Elisabeth (1994) Michaela Kirchgasser 1985) ORTLIEB Nina (1998) Bernadette Schild (1990) SCHNEEBERGER Rosina (1994) TROOPS Katharina (1996)
7 will be the red and white that will face the third meeting between the wide doors of the season. With the forced absences of Eva-Maria Brem, Carmen Thalmann out until next year, and with Anna Fenninger a strong recovery but not yet in a position to face a top level race, the Austrian team will go all-clear on second lines. It will therefore be the veteran Michaela Kirchgasser the 'prime suspect for the' Austria to take over a top ten finish, a goal that contrasts with the tradition and with the ambitions of success of the white and red team but these days it seems to be the only accessible .
Even among the narrow poles the Austrian team part with low expectations although in this case the 'top ten goal is much more affordable. Kirchgasser, Schild and troops are altete worth the top ten of the rankings, and great curiosity will be focused on the young debutantes Katharina Liensberger and Chiara Mair who have earned their place in the squad thanks to excellent results put on display in the recent Norwegian FIS races.
These 11 Austrian slalom:
Stephanie BRUNNER (1994) GALLHUBER Katharina (1997) GRUENWALD Julia (1991) LIENSBERGER Katharina (1997) Katharina HUBER (1995) Michaela Kirchgasser (1985) Bernadette Schild (1990) SCHNEEBERGER Rosina (1994) KAPPAUER Elisabeth (1994) MAIR Chiara (1996) TROOPS Katharina (1996)
