A magical season, among other things following the serious injury 14 months ago, with the breaking of the crusader a few weeks before the World Cup in Cortina. Who would have thought, at that moment, that half of Aleksander Aamodt Kilde's 14 CdM successes would come in this year 2021/22, seasoned with seven triumphs, 4 of which in super-g and the last, today, the most important of all because the first on Kvitfjell's home snow, earned him the conquest of the crystal ball of the discipline, his second after that of 2016.
And that's not all, because AAK is also the leader in the downhill and will defend 28 points of margin over Beat Feuz in the final race in Courchevel-Méribel; Precisely for this reason, the Norwegian explained in today's post-race that, despite having reduced the gap in general from Marco Odermatt to less than 190 points, he will not go to Kranjska Gora for the two giants next weekend. Among the wide doors, we will see the best Kilde again next season to launch the real challenge to the Swiss phenomenon: "Winning at home, in front of our fans, on such a beautiful sunny day: it couldn't be better than this - reports" Ski Racing ”On the statements of the 29-year-old from Baerum - I am concentrating completely on speed, the day after the second race in Kranjska Gora there will be the first downhill test in Courchevel, after a long journey.
So I think it's definitely better to focus on speed and maybe make the giant of the finals ".
