The favorites are emerging

Instead of as originally planned, training did not take place at 11 a.m. but at 13 p.m. (local time) because the masses of snow that had fallen the day before had to be cleared from the track first. These ensured that the surface was significantly more unsettled than in the first training session. This posed problems for some athletes. Like Jasmin Flury, who crashed into the safety fences but was uninjured. Meanwhile, her compatriot Joana Hählen set the best time. Behind them, Kira Weidle, Ragnhild Mowinckel and the incredible Sofia Goggia impressed, who almost stood up many meters before the finish - and nevertheless came in a strong fourth place.

Nadia Delago, who got the upper section perfectly in the first training session but made a mistake in the final part, missed a goal on Monday. Although the sixth final place should be viewed with caution, the 24-year-old still made a strong impression. That leaves you wanting more.

Their sister Nicol has now apparently bought her ticket. The 26-year-old didn't drive flawlessly, but she finished 18th ahead of the internal competition of Francesca Marsaglia, Elena Curtoni and Federica Brignone. In view of this, it is highly unlikely that the coaches will decide against Delago. The Italian winter sports association FISI will solve the mystery later today.

The result: Pos Name Country Time 1. Joana Hählen Switzerland 1.33,18 Minutes 2. Kira Weidle Germany + 0,23 seconds 3. Ragnhild Mowinckel Norway + 0,59 4. Sofia Goggia Italy + 0,61 5. Marie Michele Gagnon Canada + 0,62 6. Nadia Delago Wolkenstein + 0,64 7. Ester Ledecka Czechia + 0,71 8. Priska Nufer Switzerland + 0,73 18. Nicol Delago Wolkenstein + 1,62
