Bassino more and more in history with an encore in the giant of Kranjska Gora: fourth pearl of the season, like Karbon and Compagnoni, she is the undisputed queen of the discipline. And in the general Vlhova is ahead only by 150 points ...

And who stops it anymore? Simply divine, the small and increasingly immense Marta Bassino that we are in front of, a champion of a blue ski that rests on the tiny shoulders of a champion who has finally exploded.
The encore in the giant of Kranjska Gora confirmed that the Cuneo-based woman is now ready for anything, capable of withstanding any type of pressure and in all track conditions: on Podkoren she simply dominated, yesterday as today, extending in a very important way in the ranking specialty (now Gisin is 128 points away), but above all concretely approaching the top of the general. Vlhova leads with 152 points of margin on Marta, in the middle there is a wild Gisin but, considering the qualities of the native of Borgo San Dalmazzo also in speed (and in Crans-Montana we will have fun ...), everything is really wide open.
Fourth win in five seasonal giants, back to back on the same track as hadn't happened since January 1997, when a certain Deborah Compagnoni accomplished the same feat at Zwiesel; poker between the wide doors that, in the Italian history, only managed by Karbon and the same Divina from Valtellina. Victory n ° 5 in the World Cup, 16th podium, her tears say everything after the race, when Marta was not able to speak to Giulia Candiago's FIS microphone.
Then, he tried a bit to melt: “I'm speechless, for me it's all incredible. Winning like this in Kranjska Gora, I would not have even imagined on the eve of this weekend. It is difficult to describe these emotions ”.
