Lienz was the weekend of Mikaela Shiffrin, of the umpteenth confirmation at home with Bassino and Brignone, with the first slalom podium of Michelle Gisin and ... the rebirth of Katharina Liensberger.
Yes, finally on the "Schlossberg" the talent of the real star of Austria in technical disciplines has been revised in broad strokes, an element that is not taken for granted considering all the chaos that has reigned, until the season has already begun (with a flat rate in Soelden), for the situation related to the change of materials that never happened.
Accepted the compromise with the federation and restarted with a 7th and a 6th place in the slalom of Levi and Killington, but with performances far beyond the standards of last season, the 22 year old from Vorarlberg has changed pace in the giant last Saturday, obtaining the second podium of his career (after the 3rd place in the Flachau slalom last January) and the first among the wide doors with a great comeback in the 2nd round, mocking a certain Federica Brignone.
Twenty-four hours later, the 4th place in the slalom at 16 cents from another podium: "Lienz was a fantastic weekend - said the Austrian in the post slalom - In the slalom I made good passes, but it wasn't all perfect. I am still satisfied with the skiing and, since the others are not sleeping, I have to continue working to get the best possible in two disciplines. This is my goal. "

Cancellati dalla FISI, il silenzio del mondo dello sci ci ha ucciso due volte: Olga e Marcello Franzoso non si nascondono
Il collega Matteo Macor de La Repubblica ha intervistato i genitori di Matteo Franzoso, scomparso esattamente un anno fa dopo 48 ore di agonia in seguito all'incidente di La Parva. Durissime le loro parole nei confronti della Federazione e in generale dell'ambiente, solo la Guardia di Finanza ci è stata vicina. Oggi il corpo militare del quale faceva parte il velocista ligure gli ha intitolato una sala del museo a Predazzo.
