He finished as "best skier Under 23", an award which he declared to be particularly fond of. "They told me that it would be enough to do better than 6th place and it was an extra motivation, it is an award that makes me proud". Alex Vinatzer finished his season really well, even if he missed a couple of tenths to get back on the podium three months after the one he won in Campiglio, and only 32 cents even from his first victory in the World Cup. From Lenzerheide, the 21-year-old from Val Gardena leaves with a smile, despite the 4th place "you leave a bit of a bitter taste in your mouth, but now I can say that in this season finale I have really recovered - his words to the microphones by Rai Sport - What happened in January helped me a lot to understand and learn, there are various people who helped me a lot and now I know what I have to do. I will tell you, I am already looking forward to next season, indeed I would like to continue skiing until June. The Olympic Games? Yes, Beijing is the goal and for that day everything must be perfect ”. Manfred Moelgg, who slipped away in the first heat of a slalom that had really started on the right foot, albeit starting with bib 22, spoke to Ettore Giovannelli about "very good sensations, as I had in training in Livigno with Alex ( Vinatzer, ed). I pushed too hard and it's a shame because going out twice in a row is a rarity for me. It was not an easy season, I often suffered in the heats finals also because of what happened with the positivity at Covid. I was expecting something more, but I'm fine on skis. Next season? We'll see, because I think it's normal to think twice about the future, but I feel I'm still competitive ”.
