One season a little 'difficult to Manuela Moelgg struggling with physical problems due to the operation of the right knee this summer that prevented her from training. Despite everything, the blue of San Vigilio, in the national 2000/2001 season, is struggling to fit in thirty in slalom and giant remain at good levels in the hope of being able to participate in the finals in Lenzerheide, and why no, the Olympic Games in Sochi.

This summer, you have suffered a knee operation. How do you feel, it bothers you during competitions or workouts?
Later I started to train on skis, I started in October and I did a lot of effort until the muscle has not recovered completely. Now, after three / four days of training, I have to take a day off because then it starts to give me a bit 'boring, but I always keep it under control with laser and massage services.
The back instead how it goes?
At this moment I am very happy, it is not perfect, but I can train well. Even the back I keep it under control much, but compared to how I was before, I'm fine.
In the slalom pieces with chest high, more than 60. How does it feel to starting so far back?
Having operated knee I had no way of doing FIS races, so they are out of the thirties. It's hard to leave behind, especially if the track does not keep well. I'm in a situation a bit 'difficult, but I try to give the same maximum and if I can not get good results, I will try to do the FIS races at the end of the season to recover back some point and then leave a little' more forward.
Your brother Manfred in the past has already experienced this situation, too, starting with chest high. It gives you advice on this?
Manfred started with chest high, but after two / three races and back again within thirty then managed to recover quite well. During the last two races, where I have not qualified for the second round, I found the runway in bad shape. In Bormio was hot, it had rained and the weather was no longer feasible. My brother tries to give me advice, but in the end you have to get out of just leaving because I'm there. It is not easy.
In giant instead are proving to be there, in the last race you came thirteenth. Next stop Maribor, what do you expect from this race?
The slope is fairly easy, if the track gets tough you can bet a lot on technique and will definitely become a good race. I will start in the thirty and I hope to bring more revenue into the ten forward and be able to enter 25 to participate in the Finals.
Sochi Olympics. In slalom athletes are few blue, while giant there is a high competition within the team. What points for qualifying?
There are several problems with the number of admissions. Before it seemed that Italy had 12 seats, adessso with the regulation on supercombinate maybe we can go up to 15 or 16. It is therefore to be seen how many will go. They will leave a few at the moment it looks like I will not be in the Olympics because there are so many giant athletes who have done good placings and making more disciplines. Let's see, it's not for me to decide, I will try to give my best.
