Mikaela Shiffrin: "I had bad feelings, did not expect to be almost at the finish line, and then ..."

Fis-ski.com drawn from the statements of & nbsp; Mikaela Shiffrin, the big disappointment of the day, and the first and second giant female World Cup Aspen, & nbsp; and & nbsp Lara Gut, Eva-Maria Brem.

Lara Gut: "I must say that when I crossed the finish line in the lead, I was happy to know I was going to finish on the podium, I mean the second race with the new ski and gi & agrave; podium & egrave; just amazing. I saw that Mikaela was skiing really well, but he made a mistake that I was used to do two years ago. And '' nice to win again. Two years ago I was skiing well, I was on the podium in every race of giant I finished except Lenzerheide. L ' 'Last year I do not know why & eacute ;, but I had more & ugrave; idea how to ski in the giant. After S & ouml; Sölden last month, I had to get used all''idea that I was able to ski again in giant and, of course, happy to be back in front of everyone here in Aspen on a fantastic track & rdquo ;. Eva-Maria Brem: & ldquo; L & rsquo; last year things were easy, I had a really good season. Quest & rsquo; & egrave year; It was different. I felt good throughout the pre-season, but before S & ouml; Sölden have been a bit & rsquo; sick and not & egrave; It was easy to find that state of form. Also in the top ten ports in the second race today I had a good feeling, but then I told myself that this was not my skiing and I let the skis go and I think in the second half & agrave; Track I managed to ski like I did last year '. I am happy and I hope I do not fight to maintain that level I have achieved today & rdquo ;. Mikaela Shiffrin: & ldquo; I felt the rough terrain. I had a good feeling, but I was struggling very hard and are proud of this because & eacute ;, in general, when I do not feel well in a round, get up a bit & rsquo; my foot off the gas and I lose a lot of time. I felt very charged and then two doors from the finish I started thinking oh my god I can not believe d & rsquo; have arrived this far. But you should never think so, because & eacute; immediately something bad could happen. I'm really excited to start the season slalom. In training, I feel good. I comporter & ograve; tactically as today, and there l & rsquo; I had almost made it, but I just have to make sure to stay smart to the finish. "
