Brignone's charge: "Sooner or later I'll pull off a great slalom. Now Lake Louise, without pressure"

The Aosta Valley, the only blue in the points on Sunday at Killington, saw a giant interrupted where she was in full race for the podium. She feels fit and the speed triptych in Canada will see her try again even downhill. His North American thoughts ...

The condition is there, the confidence to be able to fight up front, in several disciplines, too. Federica Brignone just needs to ... compete, given that between the renouncement of Lech / Zuers and Levi (more than acceptable, working for over two weeks in top conditions at Copper Mountain), and also the cancellation of the giant last Saturday in Killington, only yesterday's slalom on the “Superstar” saw the Aosta Valley be able to express herself, after that bitter outing in the 2nd heat of the Soelden opening. The 22nd place between the narrow goalposts partially mitigated the frustration for what happened 24 hours because, even if it must be said that almost all the athletes agreed that there was a risk of a distorted giant, Fede was in full race for the podium, fifth at just over 3 tenths from Tessa Worley after a first heat interrupted then in the ninth descent. “I skied well even if at times - says the Valle d'Aosta referring to the slalom on Sunday - I liked it on the wall in the second heat, with the few days of specific training I did in recent months it was a decent placement.

There was that little mark on the track that didn't allow you to do what you wanted, in the second they drew a line, but I'm sure that sooner or later I will have a great race also in slalom ". Traveling to Lake Louise, the winner of the CdM 2019/2020 looks with confidence at the triptych of speed in Canada that will see her return to compete also in the two descents in Alberta, disputed only in 2018 (collecting a 25th and a 16th place) : "I am training well and I run skiing, I expect to reach a good placement without stress from the next races and if I do not succeed, I will have other opportunities when I return to Europe".
