The statements of the blue after the women's giant of the Are World Championships are drawn from fisi.org.

Federica Brignone: "With the light of the spotlight we all saw the same way in the second heat, but I do not want to look for excuses, I left to believe despite my detachment, I went down from the first door to the last, maybe I lost three thrusts, all the rest I really pulled, I think I did a big heats, the problem is the gap I got in the first one also for the visibility, the four I have before me were the '1, 2 , 3 and 4 and had the sun in the first heat I'm sorry because I'm skiing well, I think I was very competitive, I felt confident and I'm leaving this World Championship with zero medals, but with good feelings. I'm going home after a month and a half, I deserved it, then I'll do all the World Cup races and I want a lot of redemption.The wind gusts were there, in fact we can see that we were closing in position Now I can not say how many I have taken and how many others, but the fat it is that the wind is not regular and it is not the same for all and I am sorry that the World Cup will be in such conditions. The track was beautiful and was treated better than the first run, in the first was terrible " Marta Bassino: "It was a special day in itself, these races are always a bit 'strange and can happen anything, despite this, I tried to attack all in both the first and second heat, but in the second I did a mistake too much on the back, I went long and here if you miss you lose immediately " Sofia Goggia: "Consequence after the fall? No, all is well, I think I went a bit 'long on the back, I squashed, the ski took me, I did not hold and I slipped. '' attitude, I tried my second giant of the season.This is the race of the World Championships, a slope that suits me enough, I really managed to ski well, I'm happy even if the heats must take them to the finish line twice. budget is absolutely positive, I made a splendid medal in super-G at the first shot, the regret is more for the descent because I could not be myself in the race and I never felt it even during practice. , you can not talk about bankruptcy even if I go home empty-handed, I'm sorry for Fede (Brignone, ed) that has not managed to grab this podium: obviously there are also opponents, Shiffrin, Rebensburg and Vlhova fight for the first three positions from the beginning of the season and, then it's always open, we found very spring conditions for a place like that ".
