Schild cooks Shiffrin – Mölgg is far behind

Bernadette Schild, the sister of ex-ski racer and Benni Raich partner Marlies Schild, made it in the first round in Flachau and put the American in her place. On a rain-softened slope, Schild made ideal use of starting number one and led after the first run with a lead of 37 hundredths.

Shiffrin didn't have a good run, especially in the upper section, and made several mistakes. Although she was able to make up some time in the middle part of the route, Schild was also faster on the finish slope. Nevertheless: Even if Shiffrin is not in the lead for once, she remains the big favorite - especially since she will start with a good deal of anger in her stomach.

Two podium candidates are eliminated - Mölgg is far behind

Shiffrin's big competitor, Petra Vlhova from Slovakia, did not make it to the finish. She dropped out just like co-favorites Wendy Holdener from Switzerland and the German Lena Dürr.

Manuela Mölgg didn't have a good first run. She made a few mistakes right up until the first split and came second to last. But because the slopes got worse and worse and there were hardly any runners who managed to make it into the top 30 with a high number, the Enneberger woman took part in the second round. However, your gap of 3,84 seconds is considerable.

Vivien Insam did not finish in her first World Cup race. She fell out.

Schild cooks Shiffrin – Mölgg is far behind

What seemed almost impossible in the last few weeks actually happened after the first run of the women's night slalom in Flachau. For once, Mikaela Shiffrin wasn't the fastest. Instead, an Austrian woman leads the rankings.
