Lara Gut-Behrami has already begun to get serious for weeks, to approach a new season in which to overcome, compared to the exceptional performance of 2020/21, will be decidedly complicated thinking of the double world gold in Cortina, the third Coppa del Super-g world and 2nd place in the final standings behind Petra Vlhova, touching what would have been her second absolute crystal ball.
At 30, the Comano star reached that equilibrium and maturity to return to scare everyone, without having to choose between a new assault on the cup and what would be her first Olympic title. Lara does not talk about it, but her trainer José Luis Alejo Hervas thinks about “being happy with the physical condition with which we arrive at this stage of approaching the season”.
In the newspaper "Blick", the former Spanish athlete told about the block of work done by Lara in the last few weeks, between the athletic part carried out in Granada, where the Swiss champion reunited with the woman he trained with when he was still a teenager, or the former Iberian gigantist Maria José Rienda Contreras (followed at the time by Alejo Hervas), and the first corners pulled in Zermatt ("there are no technical problems, the base is already good", explained Alois Prenn, the South Tyrolean technician who works for Swiss-Ski).
Just over two months in Soelden, where Gut-Behrami dominated in 2013 and 2016, his last victory in a giant of the World Cup before returning to very high levels also in this specialty, conquering the gold of Cortina.
