Swiss-Ski plays the appeasement card

Alpine skiing ” We are smoking the pipe of peace between Wengen and Swiss-Ski. The federation has decided to withdraw its request to the FIS to replace Wengen in the white circus calendar. The donation of 300,000 francs from the sponsor Jörg Moser in favor of the races organized by the Oberland resort and the positive signs received in recent days from political circles have led Swiss-Ski to play the card of appeasement in this affair which shook the microcosm of Swiss skiing. And who questioned the most prestigious races in the country.

This Thursday, a meeting between the Minister of Sports Viola Amherd, the president of Swiss-Ski Urs Lehmann and the boss of the races of Wengen Urs Näplin should allow to take an additional step between the different parties. Swiss-Ski does not intend to assume too much of the structural deficit of the Lauberhorn races. The federation wanted to cause an electric shock with its announcement not to include the Lauberhorn on the calendar for the 2021-2022 World Cup. ATS
