SuperG St. Moritz – Brignone-Curtoni double, great Italy in speed

The race is interrupted for a while, until the leadership changes thanks to Federica Brignone, which in turn slightly misses the line, but manages to stay inside and crosses the finish line in green light by 43 cents: 57.81.

Blue riot

There is therefore expectation for the blue, and Marta Bassino deprives us, but takes a gust of tremendous wind. So light, it is moved but does not give up and crosses the finish line third. The moment of Sofia Goggia arrives shortly after: the Bergamo rider, however, does not find a great feeling with the track and always appears a bit late in the line. Despite this, it manages to contain the gap and is in turn third with 75 cents. She still hopes a little for the podium, but this time the placement fades: it is Elena Curtoni who undermines her, with a wonderful race made up of precise lines and a lot of speed that makes her reach the finish line very close to Brignone, second by only 11 cents.

There is a moment of the race, then, in which the ranking is all in tricolor flags, except for the “intrusion” of Mikaela Shiffrin, because Francesca Marsaglia and Nicol Delago are also doing well, but in the meantime the wind drops and the girls too who go down after find good performance. above all Alice Robinson, who was in front in the upper part and at the end closes fourth. Gradually there are some entries and the ranking of the blue is frayed. It then ends with Brignone and Curtoni in front, then Goggia sixth, Bassino eighth, Marsaglia ninth, Nicol Delago 15th, Pichler 18th. Outside instead Roberts Melesi.
