The winner of the last edition of the World Cup slalom since last August is related to equal compatriot Aksel Lund Svindal the Austrian multinational energy drinks, but this sponsorship agreement according to executives of the Norwegian federation is not considered valid because the contract It has not been signed with the approval of the board that governs skiing in Norway. With this situation in the balance the talented Norwegian skier in Soelden was unable to get on track with the Red Bull logo on their helmet.
A few days before the start of the second round of the season Lars Kristoffersen, dell''atleta father and manager, has returned to speak of the affair during un''intervista interview with NRK television publicly attacking the Norwegian federation, "This story is quite influencing the performance of my son. on the eve of Soelden Red Bull asked us assurances about the 'commercial agreement, but we do because of this dispute with the federation we have not been able to provide reliable answers. Henrik was so impatient and unnerved and his approach to the race was not the best. "
Kristoffersen senior will still hopes to find quickly an agreement with their federation, because before the system is the problem before the child can calm down and give my best in the race, "I have a plan that would allow both sides to reach an agreement. And '' clear that the basis of the story do not c''è an economic problem but rather bureaucratic in the sense that the Fed wants to have direct control even the personal sponsorship of individual athletes. we know, however, that there are exceptions ( Svindal ed) and we can not understand why my son can not benefit from this privilege. and '' clear that if our contenders will not want to take a step back we will be forced to take legal action. "
The Norwegian Federation for its part has announced through a statement that it has received the new proposal from the skier's manager, but to again be in total disagreement. At this point it seems likely that the dispute will continue in a courtroom while you are becoming more insistent rumors that the presence of the next Kristoffersen Levi Slalom is a major doubt.
