Ha! That comment was premature and it was about GS not SL. But still... i'm happy Rast made her first WC podium today although i expected Duerr will be 3rd

Did she negotiate with the Italian federation until the end?   For me it is sad that we have lost the only great talent in this sport for many years. Since Bassino, we haven`t one in technical competitions in alpine skiing. Giorgia Collomb is the same age as Colturi and she has a problem to get single points in the World Cup. Basically, after end of carriers of Goggia and Brignone in 2026, our skiing will die. There will be only Bassino also over 30. No average Italian will waste half a day on Saturday to see Peterlini take 20th plac, and Rosetti and della Mea don`t finish 5 out of 6 slaloms in one season.

Obviously that was a Ceccarelli's fault. 

Or skicross 😈

First event of mens world cup today but i am not excited about it at all.    i think i have watched much too much ski jumping for the last 25 years and i just got bored with it   bring on cross-country in Kuusamo!

And I'm thinking you can count World Cup medals in ANY sport for  on the fingers of one hand. 

She was a teenager. She did not have much to say i guess

Obviously wrong   But i like this podium . Nice to see first podium for Rast

She will switch back to Italy very soon

99th win for Shiffrin
