Mikaela Shiffrin, who for the day topped both the overall World Cup and the Super-G Cup, chose the cruise weekend in Rosa Chutor to prioritize technical training instead.

Then Federica Brignone, second in the overall World Cup, took the chance. After a great Super-G ride in the 2014 Olympic slope, she won, two tenths ahead of her Italian compatriot Sofia Goggia.

"It was a ride that she was worth getting down into one," says Tobias Hellman.

Shiffrin in great management still

The victory makes her squeeze in on Shiffrin in the overall World Cup. However, she still has 270 points up to American sovereignty. In the super-G Cup, however, Shiffrin was downplayed now. Swiss Corinne Suter finished fourth in today's competition and thus advanced from second place she had before today's competition.

Suter led the competition for a long time, but was eventually beaten three places in the end, and probably would have liked to ride, believes Hellman.

- She was careful in the first steep and was very careful in the last steep. I am absolutely convinced that she could have gone harder if she had to look at the ride and drive it, he said after her ride.
