days like this in the Werdenfelser Land belong to the business, the Kira Weidle know. Rain, snow, fog, and a result that has not taken care of in the case of the German Alpine skier necessarily in a good mood. After 23rd place in the first Super-G on Saturday and the second race at home, had to world Cup in Garmisch-Partenkirchen, a day later, after several postponements, finally, because of the weather conditions be cancelled. It will now take place this Monday (10.50 PM / Eurosport).
The last world Cup weekend will probably be at the end, none of that Weidle still longer employ. A fortiori, it is not suitable to set the mood for the next Monday at the beginning of the world Championships in Cortina d’ampezzo. That would probably have been different, would have to take place as scheduled for a departure on the Kandahar. In the fastest discipline Weidle in contrast to the Super-G this season to the Best, approached with two fifth places quite a few Times to the Podium. The 24-year-old star of the girl imagines, therefore, well prepared for the big event. “I feel fit for the world Cup,” she says, because: “The descent shape fits.”
In the Super-G, however, has fitted you with her basically never been particularly good. Although, this Winter has than 15. from St. Anton and their best result in this discipline, but prompt a small setback followed in Garmisch. You have a lot of tried in the past few weeks, says Weidle. “We’ve also had two approaches, but it’s not from today to tomorrow. Maybe it just needs a bit more time.“
Quite different is the case of Lara gut-Behrami on Saturday, the third Super-G race in a row won, and therefore, as the big Gold favourite for the world Cup departs. The Swiss was once surfaced in this discipline in the world elite, fast-paced and promising. With 18, she came to her first victory on the Kandahar was 15. in the Super-G.
