Slalom queen Shiffrin wins the downhill in Lake Louise

Third place in the downhill from Lake Louise on Friday for Mikaela Shiffrin was a surprise, the victory in the downhill on Saturday is a sensation! Shiffrin was the fastest runner at all split times, except for the second split. With a brilliant steep slope and a strong finish, the 22-year-old cemented her 33rd World Cup victory. Viktoria Rebensburg from Germany follows in second place, ahead of Michelle Gisin from Switzerland. The sister of the 2014 Sochi Olympic downhill champion, Dominique Gisin, is developing from a slalom specialist to an all-rounder.

The best South Tyrolean is Verena Stuffer, the native of Val Gardena had a good run and ended up in twelfth place at the same time as Lindsey Vonn. Hanna Schnarf completely botched her run; the Olanger woman had to make do with position 27, immediately ahead of the young Nicol Delago from Val Gardena in 29th place.

The best “Azzurra” is Sofia Goggia in ninth place. Snowboard queen Ester Ledecka from the Czech Republic achieved her best World Cup result with seventh place. Your dream of a 2018 Olympic medal in snowboarding and alpine skiing no longer seems so utopian.

Curious: In the morning there was a short circuit and a fire on a chairlift in Lake Louise, which meant that the entire power supply had to be switched off. The athletes and supervisors had to be brought up the mountain with snow cats and the start was moved down a little. Because of the incident, the start of the departure was delayed by over an hour.
