In Germany there is talk of the Viktoria Rebensburg crisis. Of course, we are talking about the red bib of super-g (although after only two races of which the first won, to then finish in 10th place in St. Moritz), but the vice world champion of giant in charge is right among the wide doors, in his mother discipline, which is making so much effort. Courchevel's 4th place as the best result, the ninth place in the specialty classification, and the 7th place last Saturday in Sestriere after the flash of the 1st heat (3rd time) worried the German staff. Yesterday the words of Wolfgang Maier, director of alpine skiing at DSV arrived as heavy as boulders. â€œViktoria trains little compared to rivals, we underestimated the growth of the other athletes - he said - He thinks he can make up for the talent that is undisputed, but it is no longer enough. He can still win races, but in the current situation it would be an exception if nothing changes. " And the numbers would be merciless, given that there is talk of training with an average of four laps, while a Petra Vlhova would perform almost triple it, from ten to twelve. And the Slovak is taken as an example by Maier, knowing how much Livio Magoni takes care of an athlete who, with hard work, has reached the top.
