It was not a simple season for Henrik Kristoffersen, that ended with only three partial victories and, albeit with great consistency on the podium between slalom and giant (with only "zero" of weight in the final slalom of Chamonix), without that World Cup general who clearly represented the main focus in the first year without Marcel Hirscher on the track. On the Red Bull website, the 25-year-old Scandinavian explained that the early closure of the season, with the lack of opportunity to play the "coppone" until the last race (even if a half miracle would have been needed, with 161 points to recover in Kilde ), it was "frustrating, even though I have experienced similar situations in and out of the world of sports for the past 4-5 years. I also learned to manage the things that I can't change. " Frustration that often rhymed with the defeats suffered in the confrontation with Marcel Hirscher. Asked if he had missed the star of eight consecutive World Cups, HK94 replied honestly: "Yes and ... no! I missed him as a friend during the season, his ability to be authoritative even without saying a lot of words, there is no such person on the circuit. On the track, however, I preferred not to have him as an opponent, although I would have liked to have had more opportunities to beat him. "
