An entrepreneur to help save Wengen. Lehmann: "It comes at the right time"

As reported by Corriere del Ticino and RSI, Joerg Moser intends to make 300 thousand francs available for the Lauberhorn classic. The federal president, however, wants a balance to be found.

From politics to the donation of the owner of the Swiss folk music center Lueg, Switzerland has moved a lot to ensure the safety of the Wengen races, formally canceled starting from the 2021/22 World Cup after the Swiss-Ski request to the FIS, for known financial matters between the organizers of the Lauberhorn and the Federsci chaired by Urs Lehmann. Everyone wants to save a ski temple, including a character such as the entrepreneur Joerg Moser, who has decided to invest 300,000 francs to make an important contribution: “I want to help Swiss-Ski find a viable solution for the future of the races of the Lauberhorn and support winter sports in general ". In the next few days Lehmann himself will meet with Urs Naepflin, chairman of the organizing committee of Wengen, and Federal Councilor Viola Amherd. "Joerg's donation arrives at the right time and is a strong sign of the value of the Lauberhorn and Swiss ski races - said the number 1 of the Swiss federsci and former downhill world champion, as well as candidate for the presidency of the FIS next autumn - E It is necessary to carry additional funds and not to have to move money from the left to the right pocket. Our approach with Wengen is based on this principle. " There is still time to find the square and put Wengen back in the long-term calendars, the compromise between the parties now seems much more achievable.
