Goggia is perfect, best time in the last test in Cortina: Saturday the descent on Olympia delle Tofane

Sofia is there and confirms herself fast, even if the field of possible rivals is quite wide, with Mowinckel and Gisin on the virtual podium of the day. Brignone did well again (7th at 75 cents) and the Delago sisters rose in level. "I got rid of yesterday's fear", the words of the woman from Bergamo.

A surgical Sofia Goggia, who also takes the second and last test on the Olympia delle Tofane, to again apply as the main favorite also for the fifth seasonal descent, scheduled for Saturday (11.30 the start) in Cortina d''Ampezzo . The Bergamo is the fastest and with a good margin, given that Ragnhild Mowinckel and Michelle Gisin follow in second and third place respectively at 41 and 44 cents, while Breezy Johnson falls (after having already ended up on the ground in pre-Zauchensee training, so much so that she has to skip the Austrian descent) fortunately without consequences, but he certainly loses further confidence in terms of the race. Haehlen and a newfound Venier sign the 4th and 5th time trial, then we find Ester Ledecka at + 0 ”73 and just two hundredths ahead of Federica Brignone, seventh and competitive again (yesterday she was third). Corinne Suter closed almost a second, but clearly it will be very dangerous tomorrow, then in the top ten of this test there are Wiles and Stuhec just beyond the second behind like Siebenhofer, 2nd in the first training. Elena Curtoni closes 12th, 1 ”22 from Goggia, and here are the Delago sisters with Nicol 15th at 1” 58 and Nadia 18th at 1 ”64, just ahead of Marta Bassino, 23rd with 1” 78 behind. Finally Marsaglia, at 2 ”27, and the Melesi-Pichler duo (who are looking to the super-g) over 3 seconds from the captain of the Italy team, who commented on her performance on Rai Sport microphones. “Yesterday I was still pervaded by fear of last Saturday's flight - confessed Goggia to Simone Benzoni's microphone - Today, on the other hand, I told myself to do a good test standing on my feet, I studied the track well and I'm happy. I had an important progression on the physical level, on Monday I was not literally on my legs, but I repeat that after being afraid in the first test, I got rid of this weight crying yesterday in the room for half an hour, alone ".
