A World Cup, and it would be the second of his downhill career, after that of the 2017/18 season, getting closer and closer. Sofia Goggia will just have to finish in front of Breezy Johnson and Corinne Suter (provided that this does not happen too much in the rear, but it is a rather unlikely scenario) in the next race on January 30th in Garmisch-Partenkirchen, a track loved by the Bergamo champion. , to celebrate another crystal ball with two races to go and without having to wait for the world post in Cortina.
This is the first sentence after the encore of the Olympian in Crans-Montana, but one cannot fail to observe Sofia's current position in the overall cup classification: Vlhova, with 86 points collected in two days, has +120 on Michelle Gisin, while Goggia has just over 200 points behind and can try to shorten Sunday in super-g, also because the Slovakian will start at 99% with bib n ° 1 (she is tenth in the WCSL with the absence of Ortlieb) and will have to invent a number to get a great result. However, tomorrow's race will also be crucial for Lara Gut-Behrami, who today overtook Mikaela Shiffrin in 5th place, but above all for Marta Bassino and Federica Brignone. The Cuneo-based woman has staked everything on this race and above all on the giant next Tuesday at Kronplatz, and the attempt to defend the absolute crystal ball by the Aosta Valley will probably pass from the next two tests, who finds herself 374 points from Vlhova even if having done badly in these first two days on Mont Lachaux (double 9th place).
At the level of WCSL of descent, Goggia herself overtook Suter, while Curtoni is sixth, Brignone ninth and Laura Pirovano ever closer to the top ten of specialties.
