After Lara Gut-Behrami, the New Zealander, who had already missed the super-g in Val d''Isère, is out of the picture: "I'm fine, I hope to get back on track as soon as possible". The absence for the races on Tuesday and Wednesday is practically certain.

Covid strikes again and it is another weighty name of the Women's World Cup to be forced to remain in the pits, losing at least two crucial races of its discipline.
It is Alice Robinson who, like Lara Gut-Behrami, who tested positive after having disputed the first downhill test in Val d''Isère, will almost certainly have to skip the double giant challenge (Tuesday 21 and Wednesday 22) in Courchevel , she who among other things had done very well (her best result in the discipline) in the last super-g disputed last Sunday in Sankt Moritz, with a fabulous 4th place.
Today the 20-year-old from New Zealand did not show up at the start of the race on the Oreiller-Killy, tonight she explained the reason through social media: "Unfortunately I tested positive for Covid-19 this week, while I was at my base in Italy (in Val di Fassa , ed) and since then I have been in isolation - Alice wrote - This means that I will probably also have to skip the two giant races in Courchevel, which is why I am extremely disappointed.
I'm fine and now I'm just trying to recover quickly to get back on track as soon as possible ”.
