The second race in Crans-Montana is a very tight battle, Goggia is third behind the Swiss (first career success) and Ledecka, but the Olympic champion is 4 cents behind and now she has to recover 75 points from Bergamo. Brignone great seventh, Vlhova engages Shiffrin in the general.

A descent that speaks Swiss, after yesterday's disappointment, with the first career victory (at the age of 30) for a practically perfect Priska Nufer in the encore on Mont Lachaux, after the fourth place in race-1.
But there is also the rediscovered blue smile, given that in the first descent of Crans-Montana things had not gone well at all in Italy, with Sofia Goggia finding the podium (it is the 40th for her in the CdM) with a 3rd place very important in the specialty World Cup; the Bergamo-born, 23 cents away from the Swiss, which prevents Ester Ledecka's encore by 0 "11, second, in fact earns ten points against Corinne Suter, fourth with just 4 cents behind her direct rival, in the comparison for a crystal ball that will be assigned to the finals of Courchevel-Méribel, but with Sofia who has 75 lengths to manage compared to the Swiss Olympic gold medal.
A very balanced challenge, on a very different surface compared to 24 hours ago, with Suter who precedes Ragnhild Mowinckel by a handful of cents, who makes a mistake in the final and is fifth at + 0 "31 ex aequo with Stephanie Venier (in command up to two intermediates from the term), and Federica Brignone great seventh at 33 cents, with the gap from Shiffrin leader of the general reduced to just over 200 points. In this sense, the 15th place of Petra Vlhova is important, who brings home 16 points and climbs the American by just one length at the top, when there are eight challenges left (starting from Lenzerheide, where Mikaela will be there for super-g and giant).
