Stefano Gross: "I was wrong, the medal you have to earn it"

Taken from here fisi.org statements of Stephen Gross, Manfred Moelgg and Giuliano Razzoli at the end of the Olympic men's slalom.

Stefano Gross: "We have eaten the medal, I expected to do the coin, are two weeks skied strong, I compromised with one mistake I made before the'' top floor, is a fourth place here that does not count. I went too straight in the triple and I did not take well the'' input into the pot because I went on a bit'' the foot, the route of the second race was certainly not beautiful, but to win a medal in any case you have to adapt to any condition, the medal you have to earn it. "Manfred Moelgg:" It was a'' Olympiad'' certainly not good, can not always go well.'' It was the event of the year,'' and I wanted so much to do well, there I tried it in giant and did not go well, now slalom is a bad start in the second and ended worse. I find it hard to brake and double that I knew that had to be done, however I was wrong. Physically they are not brilliant arrived in Sochi and we are counting on the World Cup next year. "Giuliano Razzoli:" In the first race I suffered half a second too late, as it was drawn the second was the'' occaisone right to recover. I started strong but when I go to retrieve strong year quest'' I have a 50% chance you get and it went well. In the first double I was saved, in the second I touched and I slipped away. I miss the'' reliability,'' if I go a bit slower than I lose 1 ", I struggle to find quell'' balance between reliability and speed."
