It then went even worse in the second run for Kristoffersen who finished 15th.

And Kristoffersen, who drives under his own auspices, got to see his colleagues in the national team distance themselves.

- It is another small mistake on his part, he expressed it in a way that is a bit tactless.

I do not think he meant it that way and I would not say it myself, says last season's overall winner in the World Cup Aleksander AamodtKilde to VG.

- One should be a little careful in today's society.

When there is a lot of talk about discrimination, it is not an expression you want to use. I do not think he thought it could be directed at anyone, but it is not something we stand for, Kilde continues.

Kristoffersen was also sawn in NRK's ​​Winter Studio broadcast by former teammate Nina Haver-Löseth.

- It was an ironic choice of words.

Because I'm sure some of the "old women" had run away from him today.

It is immature to say so in 2020, says the former slalom skier who finished after last season after two wins in the World Cup during his career.

Today's big Norwegian surprise was that 20-year-old Atle Lie McGrath finished second, just 0.07 behind the victorious veteran Alexis Pinturault. 

- I know that it is clichéd to say that you lack words but I am completely dumb.

I tell them at home that they got an early Christmas present, says McGrath who will run Monday's slalom in Alta Badia with start number 45. Henrik Kristoffersen will start with number 3. A couple of Swedes will start: Kristoffer Jakobsen with number 17 and Jesper Brändholm as number 63.

The broadcast starts on SVT1 and Play 09.55.
