“It was always my dream. For me, GS I love this love and hatred because for some reason this is where I put more pressure, sometimes I can’t handle the pressure and I feel very bad at the beginning and sometimes I do it. “But today was great and it’s amazing when I can do it.”

Bergonon, who is already the winner of the Super G Silver in Salbach, had released his own first -run first -run first -run to put himself in the pole to go to the second run.

After that, the top three took control: First Moltzan, followed by Robinson, Kiwi posting the second fastest time on each descent and imitating the consistency of Brigadon. Robinson said, “I didn’t think it’s a good run.” “It was one of those runs that feel bad but really faster!

“As soon as I passed through the third gate, I thought I would have to charge and I would have to go for it. Federica was amazing. After that, only Brigadon is left to come, which ends. There is a clear feeling of expectation between 15,000 strong crowds around the area.

And the Italian was not disappointed, absolutely emphasizing the scorer through the line for victory. His victory was not diminished by the absence of Shafreen, who announced the withdrawal from GS on Monday, citing symptoms of later traumatic stress related to the stomach puncture injury.
