Lara's trio, but the regret for the general is great. "Glad to be back to my levels"

Gut-Behrami today officially received his third super-g World Cup, but with the cancellation of the second fast race in Lenzerheide, the dreams in a "coppone" perspective have vanished. His dream words and numbers. Four blue in the top ten in the specialty ranking.

A bittersweet day, with that slightly "stretched" smile even on the awards stage, receiving her third specialty crystal ball. After 2014 and 2016, Lara Gut-Behrami won another super-g World Cup, which has already become arithmetic after the previous race in Val di Fassa. And so, the goal today in Lenzerheide was only to shorten against Petra Vlhova in general, hoping then for a half miracle in the technical competitions; it was not possible, with the cancellation of the second round with speed, and yesterday the Ticino driver had the opportunity to underline the disparity of the calendar, underlining that in fact the "coppone" would not have lost it with these tests of the finals do not dispute. In any case, it remains an exceptional season with the two world titles in Cortina in super-g and giant (and the bronze in descent) and this World Cup, literally dominated with 4 successes (6 in total in the cup with the two descents won. in Val di Fassa) in 6 races and 525 points obtained out of the 600 available. In second place, 202 points away, Federica Brignone who anticipated Corinne Suter by 13 points, the holder of the trophy who climbs in this case on the third step of the podium, after the second downhill. There are four Italians in the top ten final of specialties, with Bassino fourth (at 228 points), Marsaglia ninth with 146 and Curtoni tenth with 136. "It is my third time with this cup and it means a lot to me - he explained Lara in the FIS interview with Giulia Candiago, after the award ceremony - The super-g has always represented something special, but in particular I am happy to have returned to the level on which I had expressed myself in recent years. The general? I had my chance, but let's think about the super-g and having lived my best season in this discipline ”.
