Pirovano's joy, Marsaglia's tears, Curtoni's sincerity. "Only the medals counted"

The blue reactions after a world descent with three athletes in the top 15, but far from the podium. Nadia Delago: "I had a great time".

Without Sofia Goggia, who would have been the great favorite all the more so on a track and in the conditions in which the Olympia delle Tofane presented itself today, she was really hard for the medals. The blue girls of the descent defended themselves, but in the third race of this World Championship in Cortina we had to settle for good placings. The best is Elena Curtoni's eighth. "I gleaned a bit at the bottom of the schuss, but I skied quite well today - explained the woman from Valtellina to Simone Benzoni's Rai microphones - There was wind, I don't know how much it took compared to the others, but I just thought to attack and the performance I can be satisfied. The World Cup is not over, but it's clear that only medals count ”. Laura Pirovano, twelfth, had an exciting world debut, as the 23-year-old from thirty leaked after crossing the finish line (in green light with bib number 3) and then after the race. “I have no regrets, in fact right now I'm the happiest person in the world. The rehearsals didn't go very well, but already being here is a gift. I won too today ”.
