The early closure of the women's World Cup season, with the beauty of the last ten races on the calendar canceled, defines the final rankings and three other successes at the level of specialty cups.
If Federica Brignone had already toasted to the crystal ball in combined and Corinne Suter to those of speed, with the Swiss triumph both downhill and in super-g, the last four verdicts obviously concern the triumph of the Aosta Valley in the general and in the ranking giant, while Petra Vlhova is "satisfied" with the parallel and slalom cups.
A first ... double historic World Cup for Slovakia, with the Eastern champion preceding in the first case the winner Direz, winner in Sestriere, and Brignone herself, while in slalom she follows her at 20 points behind Mikaela Shiffrin, who did not even have the chance of a counter-pass, and the Austrian Liensberger in third place.
If in the ranking of giant Federica Brignone eventually finished ahead of the same Vlhova and Shiffrin, respectively second and third, in general the blue then beat the American by 153 points and the Slovakian by 189, with the Swiss Corinne Suter in fourth position. Marta Bassino, who was only 20 points from the Swiss team, lost a good chance, also thinking about the final podiums in the giant (ended in 4th place) and parallel rankings that saw her involved, while the final positions of the other Italian tip in the overall they see six blue in the thirty.
Sofia Goggia, despite Garmisch's injury, ends 11th ahead of Elena Curtoni, 15th, Francesca Marsaglia 24th and Nicol Delago 28th.
