Courchevel-Méribel World Cup Finals: Saturday (10.30-13.30) the challenge between the narrow posts, without blue in the race and with Petra and Mikaela, who will start with numbers 3 and 4, without pressure to find the lost podium Are. The complete startlist.

Last week's surprise in Are was total, with both off the podium after years just as they were fighting for the overall World Cup.
Now that everything is already decided, given that Mikaela Shiffrin made the difference against Petra Vlhova in the two fast races of these finals in Courchevel-Méribel, certainly both the American and the Slovak, winners of 7 of the 8 slaloms this season ( 5 Petra, 2 Mikaela), will be able to take to the track without any kind of pressure, also considering that the specialty ranking is closed in favor of Vlhova.
Michelle Gisin will open the race on Saturday (start at 10.30 with the 1st heat, Austrian design, at 13.30 the second with Mike Day, Shiffrin's coach), without blue since none qualified and the same Brignone and Bassino, entitled thanks to the points of the general, preferred to focus on the giant on Sunday.
Katharina Liensberger, returned to success in Are, will come out of the gate sixth, between Duerr (5) and the returning Holdener (7), and after the two favorites since Vlhova has caught the n ° 3 and Shiffrin the 4 (before of them also Ana Bucik, in the first sub-group and immediately with a large number 2).
It is not easy to see entries from the second sub-group, also because in these snow conditions the bib could count a lot even in this slalom, with 25 athletes at the start and the last at the gate who will be Zrinka Ljutic, new world champion jr we have already seen several times in the maximum circuit, even if it is just an eighteen year old.
