Well done Maryna 

For those, who don't follow me on Twitter or are too lazy to put into Google Translate (in both case - shame on you ) - that's the best result since 1980s and Tlałka sisters.

That was some anticlimax at the end  

 

But other than that, pretty nice competition with lots of close races.

One woman shows turn out to be pretty common for Winter sports these days? When one cools down (Shiffrin), there is already another ready to sweep the races.

The FIS has finally, at long last, figured out what format works for parallel races. And, shocker, it's the one they used for snowboarding until recently. They should let the snowboard people know.

To be fair, we've only had technical events so far this season. At least five of the next seven races are speed events  

 

By the way, just noticed something pretty cool: if all goes well, the Zagreb men's slalom will be the 500th World Cup men's slalom race in history  

 

And even better, nine days later the first of the Lauberhornrennen downhills in Wengen will be the 500th all-time men's World Cup downhill race, so a double jubilee within one and a half weeks

I will presume you just time travelled your way to 2020.

Kinda exciting race today with Pinturault winning the 100 points
