The Garmisch-Partenkirchen super-g has cost dear not only to Sofia Goggia, but also to another ace of speed like Viktoria Rebensburg.
Although at first the injury had not seemed too serious, so much so that the same "Viki" had tried to reassure everyone by talking about a "violent blow, but I do not have too much pain in the knee", in reality the diagnosis arrived in afternoon is bitter and prematurely ends the Bavarian season, which just 24 hours earlier had triumphed over the downhill Kandahar.
It will take 6-8 weeks to recover from the fracture to the head of the tibia of the left knee, as confirmed by the German federation through the medical director Manuel Kohne, in addition to a problem with the internal collateral that has undergone a stretch. Problems with the crusaders excluded, but for Rebensburg the dreams of fighting for the specialty cups have disappeared, after having brought home two races this season, with the successes in the super-g of Lake Louise and, precisely, yesterday in the descent home, his first victory in the queen discipline.

Scheib rientra in Europa dopo 29 giorni tra Argentina e Cile: Un lavoro molto buono. Sarà lei la favorita a Soelden
La detentrice della Coppa del Mondo di gigante, che proprio dall'opening sul Rettenbach ha iniziato a costruire lo scorso anno quel trionfo, ha diviso a metà il lavoro tra focus sulla sua disciplina a Ushuaia e poi velocità sulle nevi cilene pensando al super-g. Rifinitura a Pitztal e poi direttamente a Soelden, il set-up finale lo definiremo in quel momento.
