“It's all a balance over madness”, Vasco Rossi said in his “Sally”.
Well, that's exactly what Sofia Goggia found today to tame the Oreiller-Killy, after having conquered five podiums without ever winning in the Val d''Isère temple. Yesterday's madness, contained by a better technical and competitive balance in the second descent on the "OK", and here is the eighth pearl in her career (podium number 29), confirming a Sofia found from every point of view , after last very difficult season.
"I didn't think it would be enough for the victory - Simone Benzoni confessed to Rai microphones, after having already shown some disappointment once I reached the finish line with the n ° 3 - I skied better than yesterday, it's true, but the" attitude put on the track in the first descent is incomparable. I was surgical, I did the curves very well and in the end I took her home.
If Brignone and Bassino are not there in front, as is now customary in giant (and tomorrow in super-g there will be fun, even if the Aosta Valley is not at the top after yesterday's crash), here is Goggia leading the speed, confirming a women's team always at very high levels. “I'm happy to have grown up in a strong group, they drag each other along and I'm happy to be able to be a reference on the descent. And tomorrow we have the super-g, but what a start ... ".
