If the men are racing the same course, it is almost a given... Yes it is the same course. Only numbers in the super g and the slalom will have a big opportunity.

phelps 7,182 Posted February 15, 2021 #172 Share Posted February 15, 2021 and remember...in the slalom race it will be from 1st in the super-G to last... so, the super-G winner will have a big advantage starting 1st on an easy & flat but very icy course... and we're going to have all the hype (if there's any hype for this race) gone after 5 minutes...

I think we have to wait until number 14 Holdener, but with Shiffrin Vlhova and Gisin we have one of the TOP 5 Slalom ladies of this season at the beginning.

phelps 7,182 Posted February 15, 2021 #175 Share Posted February 15, 2021 so, with all the big 3 (Shiffrin, Gisin, Vlhova) just a few hundreds behind, no chance for Brignone unless 1 of them goes out (which is highly unlikely)... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You know that Vlhova, Gisin, Shiffrin and Holdener are at least 2-3 seconds faster than the best of the rest in the women’s slalom field. And Brignone is not the best of the rest so she will loose 3-4 seconds. Yes, we have only one run but it would be a big surprise if she looses less then one second to the best times in the slalom.

hckošice 13,332 Posted February 15, 2021 Author #178 Share Posted February 15, 2021 I am really excited to see the time differences between mens and womens on that Super-G piste, since it is the first time ever both genders will race on the same exact track. Brignone time was 1:22.11 How many girls will beat mens ? war of sexes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JonPhi 247 Posted February 15, 2021 #179 Share Posted February 15, 2021 Slalom course for women and men will not be the same! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
