The startlist of what will be, unless there are new problems given by the weather, the first race of these finals. The Ticino, already winner of the specialty cup, chooses the number 7 to look for a success that brings her closer to Vlhova (n ° 17). Four blue in the race: Curtoni with 3, n ° 5 for Brignone then Bassino (15) and Marsaglia (19).

The seventh and last female super-g of the World Cup season, that of the Lenzerheide finals, is scheduled for Thursday starting at 9.30 (live on Eurosport and Rai Sport), obviously weather permitting as the forecasts are slightly better than as of today, with the race jury forced to cancel the descents, but there will probably be more precipitation during the night.
It could be the last chance for Lara Gut-Behrami to keep open a general classification that is taking the path of Slovakia and home to Vlhova; the Ticino dominated the super-g season, conquering the crystal ball with a race to spare, putting in four series successes to which the world title in Cortina is added, but the last test saw her settle for 2nd place, behind Federica Brignone in the race at Passo San Pellegrino.
The Aosta Valley will be one of the four blue on the track tomorrow: there will obviously be Sofia Goggia, with Fede who will start with the number 5, preceded by Elena Curtoni with the 3, while Bassino will start with the 15 and Marsaglia with the 19. Gut- Behrami, who must recover 96 points in Vlhova, will come out of the gate with “her” number 7, while the Slovakian instead with 17, in a race opened by Marie-Michele Gagnon and Michelle Gisin.
Brignone will play for the final specialty podium, finding himself second and with 13 points of margin on Corinne Suter (in the race with the number 9) and 51 on Tamara Tippler (bib 11), while Bassino still has a small chance finding himself at -82 from the same Swiss third in the standings.
Twenty-four athletes at the start, including the new junior world champion, the Austrian Lena Wechner.
