Ramona Siebenhofer: "The slope is technical and also fast, winning again is fantastic! After yesterday's emotions I tried to rest tonight and today to stay focused on my race. The World Cup? I'm still a bit 'far, I have to watch race after race and season after season. Tomorrow in super-G I am ready to surprise myself again, my best result is a fourth place! ".
Nicole Schmidhofer: "Yesterday I made mistakes in the central part but today it was much better. Sharing the podium with Ramona was fantastic. Di Cortina I love people, the slope, everything: here I made my first podium in super-G in 2013, we'll see tomorrow. Today I said to myself: push, push, because yesterday I could not do it ".
Ilka Stuhec: "It's nice to be on the podium again! My test was not the best, I made some mistakes but the track was fantastic ".
Nicol Delago: "I'm not happy with my performance and certain lines, I could not take advantage of the ramps I wanted and personally what I did I'm not satisfied, but the result is not bad, I will try to do better in the super-G. It's beautiful here in Cortina, with that tribune: there are so many people, I saw the cheer when I came down and it's always spectacular, we hope it will continue like this until 2021 and maybe 2026 ".
Federica Brignone: "I'm satisfied with what I did, in the technical part I finally managed to do what I had to do as a gigantist, my goal was to pull the corners as I know and have the right concentration in the race, because it's a bit '' that in the race I can not put that little bit more in. I'm happy to have done it today, in Italy and downhill, it's my second best ever result, I can not help but be satisfied. different awareness, they make so much speed, they are flowing and they are good .. Lindsey Vonn was the strongest downhill racer of all time and is still the strongest in the world, now you see she has difficulty, I have not seen her very well to Copper before he got hurt, but she's a lady: she did a week of training and is in the top ten. "
Nadia Fanchini: "Taking eight tenths at the top, then making the same race for the front ones for three quarters and then taking another seven under is hard to accept: one that always loses all over the track can be said to be limited, but when you do to score among the best times in the parts where there is skiing, it's hard, but every day I try to file, thinking that I'm skiing well ".
