Vlhova, the most unexpected victory: "Today I was lucky, Anna deserved it all"

The Slovakian, with the set of three in the Kranjska Gora slalom, has taken a huge step towards her goals. His first thought, however, is for the unfortunate Swenn-Larsson.

It was the strangest victory of the 14 in his career for a Petra Vlhova in some way dazed in the post race of the Kranjska Gora slalom. The sensational departure of Anna Swenn-Larsson, a step away from the finish line when the Swedish was launched towards the first triumph in the World Cup, did not leave the Slovak champion indifferent. Indeed, Petra spoke clearly: “Today Anna deserved success, I was simply lucky - the comment of the giant champion - Of course, it is an important victory, among other things in front of many of my fans who made me feel at home". Eighth pearl in slalom, third season in the specialty (in a row) and fifth overall in a year that now sees Vlhova in full swing for ... everything. New red slalom bib, obviously taking advantage of the absence of Mikaela Shiffrin (now at -20 from the Slovakian), and 154 points behind the American in general (at -41 from Brignone). "Sorry for everyone for Mikaela, now I don't think too much about the points and the cup - he said at the conference - In the second heat I attacked to win, after a difficult first."
