Vlhova and those 180 points that weigh a lot. Petra wins again: "Total confidence in slalom"

In Lienz the Slovakian wrote 23 in the box of successes in CdM, with the 50th podium and an overall ranking that will see her go to Shiffrin's assault in the first slalom of 2022. Liensberger's joy: "How nice to be back up there after a long time weather".

A slalom without the queen, even if that throne that Mikaela Shiffrin has held for years, has already been wobbling for a while at least between the narrow poles, as Petra Vlhova has reached a very high level as demonstrated by the first seasonal duels between Levi and Killington. Today, due to the positivity of Mikaela's Covid, there has not been a new episode of the "saga", but even in Lienz (where the US dominated two years ago) one of the two won, with Petra making a season three , strengthening the red bib and reaching, in addition to the 23 seals in the World Cup, the remarkable figure of 50 podiums in the maximum circuit. And even if she does not mention it, in the general classification there are only 135 points behind Shiffrin (and 42 from Goggia) for the holder of the crystal ball, with the American in strong doubts for Zagreb and the great rival who could also fly. at the top, considering the four technical races that will open in 2022. "Today it was nice to ski, it was not easy with the gaps so small - the Slovak champion analyzed the FIS microphones in the post - I did not expect such a tight race in general, I feel confident in this specialty and it's nice to get back to winning after a while (since 21 November when he scored a double for Levi, ed). I knew that my first heat wasn't perfect, I had to push and go faster, I tried to do it and I'm really happy with the performance and obviously with the result ”.
