The success, the first in his career, went to Ilka Å tuhec, Slovenian very fluently which was fourth in the super-G in Beaver Creek on 30 November 2013 and by the fifth downhill 7 March 2015 in Garmisch-Partenkirchen, and for Slovenia is the first victory in the specialty with an athlete who is not Tina Maze, who descents Cup has won four. Second to 22 cents has placed an extraordinary sofia goggia who won his second consecutive podium in the races she played after the third place in the Killington giant six days ago plus queso is his first placement in the top ten, he had been eleventh in Garmisch-Partenkirchen on 6 February. Sofia has decreased with 28 and is installed in command, but Ilka has ousted soon after with 29: there is a suspicion that at that time has improved the visibility, until then rather gray, but both were well-versed in take advantage of the favorable opportunity. For Italy is the fifth podium of the season after four third places, the third female. Third to 31 cents the Swedish Kajsa Kling, who had been second in super-G in St. Moritz, his only podium so far, while downhill was fourth in Altenmarkt on 9 January. A podium absolutely impronosticabile the eve!
Off the podium, fourth at 69 cents, she finished her who the day before was almost unanimously favored the Swiss Lara Gut, fifth at 97 cents an extraordinary Viktoria Rebensburg that Killington seemed far removed from the best condition after the injury and instead today, the German has placed the great result, a sixth specialist in Canadian track, the American Stacey Cook, seventh ex-aequo the second blue, Hanna Schnarf excellent, and the best of the Austrian, Stephanie Venier, dropped with 27 and then she may have benefited from improved visibility, the ninth US Laurenn Ross, tenth and eleventh Hungarian Edith Miklos another US, Breezy Johnson. They messed two of the favorites, Tina Weirather, fourteenth, and the Austrian Cornelia Hütter, seventeenth, but definitely the first to go down had no visibility of those who left later. In this regard, an observation: while today in Val d'Isere the new bibs assignment system worked perfectly, in Lake Louise was not as what was expected worsening weather during the race and instead happened on contrary.
Of note, among other placements, the eighteenth place at his debut in the World Cup for Mikaela Shiffrin, the US now has 153 point lead in the overall standings of the Cup that is closer and guess what 'who is ? Sofia goggia! Twenty-first star of the Czech Ester Ledecká snowboard that never ceases to amaze us because of these positive incursions in alpine skiing speed. Other blue: Elena Fanchini twelfth, twenty-second Nadia Fanchini, Elena Curtoni twenty-sixth, thirty-Nicol Delago, Verena Gasslitter thirty-fifth, thirty-ninth Verena Stuffer, forty Francesca Marsaglia.
