Wind and rain in Semmering, at 10.00 off to the battle of the third giant of the season

Tough first heat on the "Panorama", given that the weather and track conditions are very complicated. Shiffrin with number 1, then immediately Brignone and Bassino before Mowinckel, Vlhova, Worley and Hector. Zenere with 40 leads the patrol of the other blue ones with high chests.

The first of the two giants scheduled in Semmering, recovery of the one canceled over two months ago in Soelden, immediately proposes a tough condition for the athletes competing today on the Austrian snow, given that at the high temperatures of recent days, added wind and rain in today's morning. Wet track again and use of salt a few hours before the start. At 10.00 the start (the 2nd run is scheduled from 13.00) of an inaugural run, traced by Alois Prenn (Swiss technician), opened by Mikaela Shiffrin with bib number 1, while Federica Brignone and Marta Bassino will have the 2nd and the 3, with Sara Hector (2nd in the specialty classification 40 points from Cuneo) who will close the first sub-group with number 7, after Mowinckel, Vlhova (with number 5, she is the last winner of the giant on Panorama 4 years ago) and Worley. And obviously pay attention to Lara Gut-Behrami, winner of the discipline opening in Killington, at the tenth gate. First heat of the Semmering female giant that you can follow on NEVEITALIA, starting at 10.00 with the FIS live timing service.
