Stephanie Venier triumphs in the Super-G: A grand World Cup victory!

The Austrian ski racer Stephanie Venier achieved an impressive victory at the Super-G in Crans-Montana. The 31-year-old took 1: 16.52 minutes for route and referred the Italian competitors Federica Brignone (0.04 seconds behind) and Super-G World Champion Marta Bassino (0.15 seconds). This is not only Venier’s third World Cup victory, but also her first in the Super-G discipline, which makes this triumph all the more important, such as skiweltcup reported.

The nervousness accompanied Venier before the start of how they got involved after the race: "I was at the start and already extremely nervous all day. But that was probably a good omen," she said, showing herself in the interview with "ORF" visibly relieved after her great run. The waiting for the last runners gave her additional tension: "This wait is difficult," explained the Tyrolean, who considered the strengthening of her performance in the upper part of the slopes to be decisive for her victory. The competition took place under almost perfect conditions on the "Piste Mont Lachaux", a popular place for ski races, and thus turned out to be another highlight of the speed weekend.

The ranking was supplemented by Romane Miradoli in fourth place (0.28 seconds behind) and the Austrian athlete Cornelia Hütter (0.45 seconds behind). Lara Gut-Behrami, the overall World Cup, from Switzerland, at the head of the overall World Cup, remains with a lead of 205 points to the injured American Mikaela Shiffrin. Hütter stays close to Gut-Behrami and could still bring exciting developments in the Super-G World Cup, while the other talents, like Norwegian Kajsa Vickhoff Lie and the Czech Ester Ledecka, also placed prominently.
