I watched Rai Sport this morning and it looks like Anna Swenn-Larsson is the one who tested positive.

 

Chiara Mair gets bib #7 in the top group

 

Resi Stiegler is back on the World Cup for the first time since March 2019.

no, it was a coach of the Swedish team that tested positive...

 

but because of the Finnish law against covid, that means the whole Swedish team can't make the trip to Finland...

 

they were talking about Swenn-Larsson because Brignone started an argument saying that's unfair, because a girl like Swenn-Larsson, despite being surely negative (5 negative tests in 10 days, as written before) can't start the races and with 2 "zero" is already out of contention for the discipline standings not because of her fault...

they were talking of this thing also on the Swiss TV (I'm watching the race on RSI-La2 HD)...

Well that is a little ungrateful since I generally cheer for the likes of Popovic

Not so unusual for Levi. Since the start is flat, there are always some new names with excellent early times.

But when the steep part comes, needless to say, the wheels come off in large majority of such cases.

Brignone DNF....

[heywoodu 16,000]

Excellent second run for Mair, 16th to at least 9th.

Weather getting worse, high winds & snow.

 

Paris St Germain takes the lead!
