5th place seems excellent for someone who didn't win all races though.

he won 4 races and draw one. 5th place is awful for that kind performance

Yes, it's the left knee. Her ligament is strained and she has a fracture of the "Tibiakopf" in the knee. (I'm sorry, I have heard this word for the first time today, looked for an online-Translation and didn't find any. Maybe someone else knows the english word.)

Tibial head, or proximal tibia.

Simon Maurberger...ACL and outside meniscus (left knee)...

 

 

about Shiffrin...according to multiple US sources (among the media) it's very, very unlikely to see her in Kranjska Gora...

 

and La Thuile + Crans Montana were already out of her schedule...

 

I wonder if we'll see her again on the slopes this season?

 

p.s. personally, I understand very well her feelings...and I wouldn't be surprised, should she decide to take a very long break before coming back...

Ofterschwang is basically a month away. I suppose she will return to action there.

Thomas Dressen wins in Saalbach.

 

Old school downhill track with zero technical sections  and everyone gets bounced around on the bumps.

 

Mauro Caviezel made one huge error on the bottom that cost him the win.

 

Beat Feuz clinches the DH small globe with two races remaining.

I had totally missed Yanqing was replaced by Saalbach, thank the lord for reminders and the Eurosport Player  

 

Awesome downhill course

Today's super-G has been postponed from 11.00 to 11.30 and in a few moments there'll be a jury decision on whether or not we'll start then.

 

Edit: Right, postponed to 12.00, next decision in half an hour. The wind is the main problem at the moment, but they are expecting that to calm down a little.

Brignone got gastroenteritis, Bassino back spasms...

 

our women's team looks quite in trouble, even if both are expected to race in Maribor anyway (but who knows in what kind of shape?)...
