Veith reports back – Hofer and Delago surprise

The first surprise came before the start. Lindsey Vonn, who won the Super-G on Saturday, did not take part due to knee problems. In addition, the second Super-G in Val d'Isère was not started from the top, but from the reserve start. The result was a very short run that didn't last much longer than a minute.

Veith overjoyed, Goggia and Brignone strong

Anna Veith was overjoyed. The Salzburg woman, who has had a long period of suffering, celebrated her first World Cup victory since March 22, 2015. “It's very emotional. I always dreamed of this during my difficult times. I am just happy. “It’s nicer than a World Cup victory or an Olympic success,” said Veith on ORF after the race.

Sofia Goggia, who was on the podium 13 times last season, confirmed her upward trend. After strong second place in the Super-G on Saturday , the 25-year-old from Bergamo came third today. Tina Weirather, the Super-G World Cup winner from last year, was only three hundredths faster from Goggia. Federica Brignone drove a strong race. She took seventh place.

Just outside the top 10, Hofer and Delago shine

Hanna Schnarf from Olanger didn't end up in the top ten. Yesterday, Schnarf was sixth, today Schnarf was 1,80th, 16 seconds behind. This put Schnarf two places behind her teammate Nadia Fanchini.

Anna Hofer and Nicole Delago provided big surprises. The 29-year-old from Steinhaus im Ahrntal finished tenth with start number 35 – a strong performance. But Hofer was not the only surprise from South Tyrol. Nicol Delago, who started with the high number 52, was only six hundredths slower than Hofer and ended up in eleventh place.

Verena Stuffer wasn't at the start today either. She is struggling with a muscle injury.
