Lara is also back in super-g: "If I hadn't won, I would have eaten my hands for that mistake ..."

The super-g of St. Anton indicated a probable fight between the Italians, Austrians and Swiss, with the Ledecka bogey between them, and in the end it was the Swiss who took home the most loot, even if the 2nd place of Marta Bassino and Federica Brignone's 5th are valid for the two Italians fighting for both the general and specialty cup. What is certain is that the rossocrociati can smile to 32 teeth for the return to success of Lara Gut-Behrami, who had not rejoiced in this discipline for almost 3 years (21 January 2018 in Cortina), with the two pearls on the descent in Crans-Montana. last February to act as a watershed with this seal No. 27 in the World Cup. At the same time, it's crazy what Corinne Suter is doing, back on the podium with a third place, just two tenths of a second behind her teammate, which means fourth top 3 in five seasonal speed races (the worst result is the 6th yesterday's place downhill) and second place in the super-g ranking, 5 points behind Lara herself who thus found the red bib she had already conquered, but in that case "definitive" at the end of the season, in 2014 and 2016. Speaking to RSI, the Ticinese explained that she felt “once again with the possibility of giving gas and being really aggressive on the ski. I have to thank the team because they had more faith in me than I had myself ”. The winner made a serious mistake in the stretch of the final corners, saving herself by a whisker: “At the finish line I was not happy, because with that mistake the time could have been improved by a second. I would have eaten my hands, luckily the others also made several mistakes ”.
