We project towards Soelden and then we will see for Zermatt / Cervinia, which is not yet certain given the snow situation, then there will be the important block in Colorado (with training at Copper Mountain in November, ed).
We aim high: Sofia is doing well and the progress in the giant has been made, even if there is still work to be done ”.
