A podium for four for a giant who gave a thousand emotions, including comebacks, mistakes and circus numbers. Like those who made Zan Kranjec, the true master of the second on Chuenisbargli, to go and take the second World Cup victory in the temple of Adelboden just over a year after the pearl of Saalbach-Hinterglemm, but above all to show everyone that he can really become the reference in this specialty.
Red bib won with the third podium in four races (and in addition to today's success and two third places, he finished 4th in Beaver Creek): “In the first heat I didn't feel comfortable - explains the Slovenian - but I knew it would be everything was still possible. I feel in shape, this is due to the athletic preparation, the work on materials and the safety and confidence that I feel. Years of work ".
If Filip Zubcic, at the first podium of his career, confesses that he "didn't think of anything in the second heat, only to attack to the maximum to see what result would come out, but certainly the podium is a great surprise", on the third step they went up both Henrik Kristoffersen and Victor Muffat-Jeandet. The Norwegian has taken over the leadership of the World Cup, despite losing the special red bib, but he is already looking at tomorrow's slalom ("let's do another good race after Campiglio, then we'll do the math"), while the French is very happy. "It was a result that arrived unexpectedly and that wipes out the frustration for last Wednesday's race - VMJ explains - I was also lucky with the cents, since Kristoffersen only equalized me and Kilde is behind by two cents, but in the I played the decisive round by telling myself to push as much as possible. The pleasure of a podium here is worth ten times compared to normal ".
