The Italian world champion Federica Brignone shone in the first giant slalom in Sestriere and secured victory in an impressive manner in the first giant slalom. Despite health complaints that she plagued shortly after her World Cup victory, she demonstrated strength and drove to the finish line with a time of 2: 12.69 minutes. Alice Robinson and Thea Stjernesund followed in places second and three. The weekend was more difficult for Switzerland after Lara Gut-Behrami left the first run, which heavily burdened her total number of points in the World Cup. Mikaela Shiffrin, who was injured in Killington on November 30, tried a comeback, but after a weak run she only landed in 25th place. "It was somehow overwhelming. Actually, it was fun to ski again," said Shiffrin visibly moved. Details on the exciting racing action can be found on Srf.chToday's competitions attract everyone! While Brignone celebrates its 33th World Cup victory, fans hope for exciting new constellations in the next race. Another giant slalom in Sestriere follows on Saturday before the technology weekend ends in Piedmont with a slalom. The tension remains high and the athletes have a lot to prove!
