Vonn hits back, Goggia falls - Delago convinces

Yesterday Lindsey Vonn was beaten by Sofia Goggia, today the American showed that she is the Queen of Cortina. With a fabulous ride, Vonn gave the competition no chance. Things didn't go so well for Goggia today. She fell from the Tofana shot, but was probably not seriously injured.

Vonn takes World Cup victory number 79

It's unbelievable: Lindsey Vonn is a phenomenon. The American not only won her twelfth Cortina victory, but also her 79th World Cup victory. An incredible rate. With the victory, Vonn also extends her lead in the World Cup women's leaderboard. For comparison: Annemarie Moser-Pröll has won 62 times in her career.

Tina Weirather took second place. However, the Liechtensteiner is already almost a second behind Vonn. The American Jacqueline Wiles came third. She held up very well for a long time and gave away a possible victory with two serious mistakes - one of them on the flat.

South Tyrolean women okay, but not in the top field - Delago is convincing

The South Tyroleans had less reason to cheer. Although Johanna Schnarf swung away at the finish with second place and a clenched fist, this will soon have loosened up. The ride wasn't bad, but it wasn't enough for an absolute top spot. Instead, Schnarf came ninth - making her the best South Tyrolean.

There was a sense of achievement for Nicol Delago from Wolkenstein. Delago was the second best South Tyrolean, 2,21 seconds behind. She came 17th. Verena Stuffer had a high speed, but there was a problem with the time. In the end, Stuffer got a few World Cup points in 20th place. She hasn't been able to get into good shape since her muscle injury.
