At 30, she rediscovered herself at a level perhaps unexpected for many and for herself, which for almost a decade still remained at that parallel victory in Moscow in 2013, her only success and podium in the World Cup.
Lena Duerr has changed gears proving that she can consistently be one of the best slalomists in circulation, also undermining the same Vlhova and Shiffrin on several occasions, starting with the two races of Levi a year ago where she won her first podiums in the specialty, with a double third place to kick off an almost perfect year, given that on several occasions the German also came very close to the first seal between the tight posts, including the Olympic race ended in front of everyone in the 1st heat, before having to settle of a very bitter fourth place.
There were four top 3 in the cup, with another 3rd place in Schladming before his best result ever (with the exception of the "famous" parallel in Moscow), the place of honor in the final race in Méribel when , again in the lead halfway through the race, Duerr was then only beaten by a sensational Andreja Slokar.
Hence, next November 19-20, for Levi's opening, it will be necessary to keep an eye on the leader of Germany, who told her feelings on the eve of a new season, speaking to the microphones of the Finnish organization at the end of one of the training sessions carried out on the race track, which definitely satisfied Lena. “The conditions are really good - exclaimed the ''91 German class - I'm having fun and I'm happy to approach the opening for us slalomists in this way.
In the summer I worked well, then there is always a great atmosphere here and I hope there are many fans ”.
