A game with very different implications in Italy, the only one completed in the two days of Semmering. Yes, because on the one hand there is the smile and satisfaction of Marta Rossetti, 11th in today's slalom which means the best result of her very young career, after the 12th of Kranjska Gora over ten months ago, and on the other satisfactions partial or ... non-existent, as in the case of Irene Curtoni. For Rossetti it is really an important result, she who had collected only two points in Levi and suffered a little even in the first heat today, closed in 26th position despite the good bib (27); back on the podium in the European Cup in the first slalom in Valle Aurina, the ''99 class from Brescia can rejoice. “In the second heat I started with the first numbers and I was able to express myself better - he explained through the FISI press office - Too bad for a little mistake in the flat section, but this recovery makes me happy. Now I feel good, I got into shape a little late but it's the right time and now I hope to do well in Zagreb too ”. Federica Brignone finished 16th, losing a couple of positions in the 2nd heat, she who two years ago in Semmering obtained her best position in slalom (12th): "I'm not happy, because I still can't ski as I would like in slalom - the analysis of the Aosta Valley - Even today I started quite well, but then I got a bit lost on the road. I will skip Zagreb to focus on the races at St. Anton, a track I've never been to ”. As long as it goes on stage, given the situation linked to the earthquake that hit the Croatian capital and beyond, in Zagreb there will not even be Marta Bassino (who will also miss Flachau, on January 12, before Maribor), which she got on in the first heats when he was in full fight to even enter the top ten with bib 32. Who, on the other hand, will have to redeem herself next Sunday is Irene Curtoni, really disappointed with her 24th placement. “In the first heat I never found the rhythm, in the second it seemed to me that I was able to pick up a better pace, but it didn't. I don't understand what happened, because I'm in shape. I'll start all over in Zagreb ”.
