Sofia Goggia smiles in half for the 6th place: "I suffered too high, then I skied well. Saturday we will try again"

The Bergamo, a little more than two tenths from the podium in the descent of Lake Louise, already looks ahead. Delago, ninth: "I have to file some details".

A sixth place that cannot satisfy 100%, but it is not to be thrown away, if we consider the conditions and many possible rivals (even for the whole span of the season) ended up behind. Sofia Goggia smiles in half, for the placement in the inaugural descent of Lake Louise, which saw her finish just over two tenths from the podium, and only 3 cents from the fourth place: “I suffered the high part, on the single ones I didn't find the right tune and I accumulated half a second late. However I skied well from the jump down, even though I was a bit surprised by the speed in the final and even on the last jump I was wrong about the exit. Saturday I will try again with the same determination ". The second Italian striker, Nicol Delago, concluded ninth: "I made small mistakes here and there - explained the Gardena, who came down with No. 5 when the snowfall was even thicker than many direct rivals - I must file these details to go up in the standings, but I am fairly satisfied ”. And it was a great test, up to the final 30 seconds of pure fluency, for a recovered Elena Curtoni, 18th, losing a lot in the final stretch, with Francesca Marsaglia finally 26th and Nadia Delago out of the points zone.
