Alpine Skiing FIS World Championships 2021

If Liensberger didn't lose 0,6 in the last 15 second split in the 1st run of GS she'd have three gold medals

Really sad to see how weak slalom has gotten. I just looked at the results of the 2014 Olympics and back then you still had 10 medal contenders (Shiffrin, Holdener, Zettel, Kirchgasser, Schild, Höfl-Riesch, Maze, Hansdotter, Poutiainen, Pietilä-Holmner). Will be really interesting to see if a) Shiffrin can bounce back for the Olympics b) Austria will keep their massive material advantage.

yeah she will be really disappointed today again, but hey, nevermind Petra, it will come next year, just stop that big globe chase and refocus fully on SL & GS

Check the splits before talking nonsense

anyway second best WCH for Slovakia Vlhová in history and 6th Slovak Vlhová medal. So more than happy here even without that sweet gold epilogue

1) I didn’t talk nonsense

2) What do the splits matter? If you think like that you can make up a gazillion reasons for why person X should/could have won. No one knows who would have won if everyone would have had a perfect run and I very much doubt that you can judge who was the most likely to win that day. Maybe Liensberger made that mistake because she took more risks/maybe the other racers didn’t make a mistake because they took less risks?

Because alpine skiing is a sport measured by time. Even Atomic speciallists told Maryna Gasienica-Daniel how much time she lost with her error in the GS. I can imagine Liensberger has even a bigger report.

 

So yeah, keep talking nonsense and pretend you know more about alpine skiing than Atomic engineers

Only 45 of the 102 starters finished the Slalom Qualification, gonna be a headache to know the next 25 qualified
