Slalom Semmering: Shiffrin's 1st space run, what an advantage to fly towards the 80th

The American is unreachable, over 7 tenths of a margin over Swenn Larsson, Moltzan and Duerr, with Vlhova and Holdener even further away. Waiting for the blues with the expected return of Peterlini...

A first space race, albeit in great safety on the slope of his dreams, the Semmering Panorama on which he has already won six times, with the two giants of Tuesday and Wednesday behind him, and tonight he will be able to sign the pearl number 80 in the World Cup , the 50th in her favorite specialty. The fifth slalom of the season already seems to be in the hands of Mikaela Shiffrin, who will have to complete the work in the second heat starting at 18.30; under the lights of the spotlights, the American champion will try to write history, restarting with a really important advantage, given that Anna Swenn Larsson follows her at 72 cents, after the Swede had already put the co-favorites behind by three tenths of the last race of 2022, Petra Vlhova and Wendy Holdener who are a little too conservative and take a second off Shiffrin, for fifth and sixth position at the halfway point of the race. In fact, Paula Moltzan is also ahead of the Slovak and Swiss, in extraordinary form and great third (79 cents behind her compatriot) with the dream of a first podium, even if Lena Duerr is just a cent behind her. The mess combines it again Katharina Liensberger, who lies down after 4 doors and ends at almost 5 and a half seconds, without the possibility of qualifying. We travel at 1"19 to find Zrinka Ljutic, very good with the number 19 also at dodging the smoothers on the track (what a risk!), around 1"30 for Nullmeyer's 8th place, then at 1"60 for the 9th, 10th and 11th of this first heat, Troops, Bucik and Gisin, waiting to see the blue five at the start, with Martina Peterlini (waited for over a year in the race) first at the start with bib number 35, followed by Rossetti, Della Mea, Lorenzi and Gulli.
