Ragnhild Mowinckel must clearly still deal with the fall, which occurred during the second trial of the downhill in Soldeu, which cost the Norwegian multipurpose rupture of the anterior cruciate and meniscus of the right knee. The first serious career injury for the 26-year-old from Molde, who had already said she was lucky until then for not having suffered other important stops; on Monday, Ragnhild was again operated on the joint, as she announced herself on social media. "I call it my Formula 1 pit stop - the friendly Scandinavian smiled from the Oslo hospital - I have to refuel and change tires before leaving". Objectively it seems difficult to think of seeing it at the start of the Solden giant, opening the next World Cup on Saturday 26 October, although by September there should be the possibility of putting the skis back on, for one of the best multipurpose skiers on the circuit and now a woman by great events. Just think of the Olympic medals (downhill silver only 9 cents from Sofia Goggia, bronze in giant) and the world medals of Are, where she rose to the podium in combined (bronze), but showed the usual consistency in all the competitions, concluding 4 ^ in giant, 5 ^ in descent and 6 ^ in super-g.
