As reported here on the official website of the races of the World Cup in Cortina:
"The German Garmisch-Partenkirchen, which every year becomes more and more women in the super-G Ampezzo in 2005 in view of Rumerlo fell into ruin and was transported by helicopter to Codivilla: it was broken knee ligaments thus compromising twenty years a career that had already been outlined amazing. Riesch But it has a very strong character and just came back to win in Cortina super-G in 2008 in front of the Queen and Lizi Goergl Olimpia, Renate Goetschl. Again it is : sets, this time down, in the year (2011) went on to win the crystal ball blowing it under your nose right at the extraordinary Lindsey Vonn.
You think to be the favorite in Saturday's race?, We asked while still almost panting. And she, without batting an eyelid, even opening another broad smile: "Definitely my first training says this: the track is fantastic, hard and fast, just like me, Cortina fell in love, here I have already won twice, I'm fine, but we should not overestimate ever. Okay, almost ten years ago, here in super-G I got too bad, but I quickly forgot because otherwise then I would not be able to win more. "
It 'a shame that Maria Riesch has decided to close with him at the end of ski season. "In reality it is not so - there has been correct -. I said that after the Sochi Olympics or even at the end of the season I will decide whether to continue or not. " Wait to see if maybe rivincerai the World Cup? "No, it depends on it. And 'that, to be honest, I've always harder to express myself in all four specialties, especially in slalom. Look for example Mikaela Shiffrin who is eleven years younger than me and takes me almost to the ears of the narrow doors. But I can not train exclusively in slalom or giant. To win back the World Cup I in fact spend too much of my work to the tests fast. " So, just to clarify even more what will be its next decisions, the feeling is that Mary has taken a small step back and that may change his mind after the end of March in Lenzerheide in Switzerland.
The Olimpia Tofane was a crash this morning as many of the women stripped of their jet ski suits, shells and helmets. Another time all the men of the president Enrico Valle did an amazing job on the track after the heavy snowfall on Tuesday. So much so that on Wednesday evening, at the meeting of team leaders, Atle Skardaal and all the coaches present were warmly applauded Adolfo Menardi who is the director of the track World Cup in Cortina. The trouble is that, after the sun yesterday, we will not see for now chamois toddle over the gully. And 'in fact a new incoming disturbance. Nor will fill your heart seeing, as he did last night Tina Maze with her partner and coach Andrea Massi, romantically strolling in the town center, the spectacle of the runway Tofane bright as day. '' And at the risk of the super-G on Sunday that in any case would be recovered Friday of next week. Moreover, today is Friday the 17th.
