Hütter celebrates sensational home win at the Ski World Cup in Saalbach!

The red-white-red team for the women's descent at the 2025 skiing championship in Saalbach-Hinterglemm is complete! Cornelia Hütter and Stephanie Venier were already set before, but their teammates Miriam Puchner and Ricarda Haaser also secured starting places with impressive performances. Hütter, who scored with a strong departure, announced an exciting World Cup when she was interviewed in an interview with laola1.at announced that it was not an easy decision to start Ariane Rädler, who resigned with 22nd place to start only in the Super-G.

A very special highlight was the last departure race in the World Cup, in which Hütter really triumphed. Before the race, she was 72 points behind the Swiss Lara Gut-Behrami, but an outstanding performance on the World Cup departure led the lead to take the lead while Gut-Behrami had difficulties and ended with a deficit of 1.89 seconds. Gut-Behrami, which had previously won the overall World Cup, only reached the disappointing 17th place, which was her worst placement of the season, like Eurosport.de reported.

Austria's triumph in the departure World Cup

Cornelia Hütter not only crowned the World Cup winner with her grandiose victory, but also secured the coveted downhill. Her triumph was enthusiastically celebrated by thousands of fans in the target area. The departure field was dominated by other Austrian drivers, including Christina Ager and Stephanie Venier, who showed a strong performance. However, Slovenin Ilka Stuhlec and Italian Nicol Delago prevented an Austrian four -time victory because they only finished a few seconds behind Hütter. This exciting season finally ended with another great success for the Austrian team, which impressively demonstrated the dominance in the World Cup.
