Sonnen World Cup in Saalbach: Spectacular successes and new records!

At the Ski World Championship in Saalbach, the spectators experienced a spectacular weekend that offered perfect conditions. Insider Elisabeth Görgl raved about the excellently organized event and the fantastic weather in a report. The course of the slopes and the route should leave nothing to be desired for the athletes. This edition is called "Sonnen World Cup"-a term that ties in with the brilliant memories of 1991 when the weather also prevailed. The descents required a high degree of technology and skill, which was impressively demonstrated by Lara Guts sovereign races. There will be more races in which Mirjam Puchner and her fellow campaigners are fighting for the last starting places. Mirjam's old racing suit in particular could give her psychologically an advantage, as Görgl noticed.

In the meantime, Austria's technology women set an example at the World Cup start in Sölden. Julia Scheib, who took an impressive catch -up, secured third place and gave the Austrian team the first podium in a giant slalom since December 2019. However, Federica Brignone was the great winner; With her 28th World Cup success, she set a new record when she became the oldest winner in history at the age of 34 and 104, and thus overtook the former Austrian Elisabeth Görgl, who was 33 years and 304 days old in her last victory. These impressive services ensure that the alpine ski sport remains in focus, such as reported.
