We are now at the end of a world championship that over the weekend will give the 12th and 13th round of the world championship in Cortina.
With the slalom still scheduled on Col Druscié, there are currently three athletes capable of signing the double gold medals in this world event: we are talking about Lara Gut-Behrami, who has won three medals also considering the bronze in descent between the golds of super-g and giant, by Vincent Kriechmayr author of the one-two in speed and now also by Mathieu Faivre, who added today's title in giant to the parallel title.
With the triumph of the 29-year-old from Isola 2000, France rose to 5 medals (2 golds, 1 silver and 2 bronzes), always third in the total calculation behind Switzerland (9 with 3 titles) and Austria, which leads the medal table with his 4 golds, to which are added the bronzes brought home in giant by Liensberger and Schwarz, which will also be the best cards of the Wunderteam in the slalom.
The United States, so far with the three medals, one for each step of the podium, by Mikaela Shiffrin, will again focus on their absolute star to defend at least fourth place, right in front of the Azzurri who, in parallel with Marta Bassino's gold, they added Luca De Aliprandini's silver. Then there is Norway with the title of the team event in parallel, Germany with three silvers and a bronze (really a great world championship for the Germans, considering the expectations), finally the silver apiece obtained so far by Sweden, Croatia and Slovakia .
