A no-name dominates the second women's training session

In the second downhill training for the speed weekend in Lake Louise, Kira Weidle from Germany surprisingly achieved the best time. The German has only had two top ten placements in the World Cup so far. Nicole Schmidhofer from Austria came second, more than half a second behind the young German. The Slovenian Ilka Stuhec put the first exclamation mark in her comeback season with third place.

Mikaela Shiffrin was able to surprise: the American, actually a technology specialist, finished eighth. Ski queen Lindsey Vonn is missing from Lake Louise due to injury, as is downhill Olympic champion Sofia Goggia.

Best “Azzurra” was Nadia Fanchini with eleventh place. Federica Brignone came 22nd. Nicol Delago (Wolkenstein) was able to improve slightly compared to the first training session (34th place) and came 24th. Anna Hofer (Steinhaus) took 41st place.

The last training run is on the program in Lake Louise on Thursday. The two downhill races will take place on Friday and Saturday. The “Speed Week” ends on Sunday with a Super-G.
