Aspen is a town located in the Rocky Mountains of Colorado. It is one of the most important as far as alpine skiing, so as to have hosted several races of the World Cup since 1968, and the edition of the World Cup of 1950, in which Zeno Colo was protagonist with gold medals in Downhill and Giant and silver in Slalom.
ASPEN PREVIOUS
Until now they have played 3 World Cup Super-G in Aspen. No girl has managed to establish themselves in more than one occasion: November 24, 2000 he won Michaela Dorfmeister, November 29, 2002 Hilde Gerg and December 9, 2005 Nadia Styger.
Dorfmeister is nevertheless the only woman capable of up to 2 times on the podium: in addition to the success of 2000, came second in 2005. As for the color blue, the best result is the third in Isolde Kostner of 2002, when he was beaten also by Janica Kostelic, his first podium in the World Cup in this event although already boasted the Olympic silver medalist won the previous season in Salt Lake City.
BOWL OF SPECIALTIES 'OF SUPERG
Two girls in the struggle for the conquest of the specialty cup. Currently controls Ilka Å tuhec with 350 points against the 335 of Tina Weirather; mathematically out of all the other Whereas Lara Gut, third, is yes to 50 lengths by the Slovenian, but will remain as known to house injured.
If Å tuhec managed to take home the trophy, he would become the second woman in history after Lindsey Vonn in 2011 who won 3 cups of specialty (Combined, Downhill and Super G) without winning the absolute crystal ball.
The blue Curtoni Elena and Sofia Goggia instead will play a chance to get on the podium in the specialty ranking: currently occupy respectively the fourth and fifth place in 55 and 60 points adrift of Gut. Both, therefore, will have to at least get on the podium (in Goggia serves the second place) hoping that Stephanie Venier he come before them to achieve this goal.
THE QUALIFIED TO ASPEN SUPERG
As known, the Finals can participate in only the first 25 of the ranking of the season's specialties being the champion of the world, the world junior champion and all those who have gained at least 500 points in the overall standings of the World Cup. Therefore, this is the list of ALL qualified, regardless of their status (the injured or not used to this specialty logically not participate).
