Daniel Hemetsberger convinces in training for the ski World Cup descent!

In the only training session for the final skiing world cup descent of the alpine in Sun Valley, the Upper Austrian Daniel Hemetsberger showed an impressive performance. With a solid run he placed in third place, only 0.25 seconds behind the leading Swiss Alexis Monney and the Italian Florian Schieder. Hemetsberger, who had missed three races because of a lumbago, commented on his premiere on the track with the words: "Really a casual departure. The underground was not ideal now, you have to say," reported Laola1 . His opinion is also reflected in the circumstances of the route; There are a lot of terrain and little sliding passages that meet it.

Other Austrian participants also performed well. Vincent Kriechmayr and Stefan Babinsky reached the top ten with the ranks eight and nine. Hemetsberger, Kriechmayr and Babinsky are represented by a total of five Austrians in the upcoming final. In contrast, the previous year's ball winner Cornelia Hütter, who took third place in the women's run, is about the small ball because she is 16 points behind the Italian Federica Brignone. Hütter will compete at 7:30 p.m. on Saturday (CET), such as Today. reported.

The situation in the World Cup

Marco Odermatt, the leader in the World Cup, only finished 20th, but this did not take the chance to secure the discipline World Cup in the upcoming race. A 14th place is enough for him to defend his leadership. The Swiss is 83 points ahead of his only remaining competitor Franjo von Allmen, who is in 13th place. The impending first season without a podium in the departure is worrying for the Austrian gentlemen, which also contains the current situation in the team.
