At ski worlds, Switzerland won a first medal in slalom parallel by mixed teams
Made up of Alex Vinatzer, Filippo della quickly, Lara della Mea and Giorgia Collomb, Italy has ahead of Thomas Tumler, Luca Aerni, Wendy Holdener and Delphine Darbellay in the final.
On the winter Olympics program in 2018 and 2022, the “Team Event” disappeared from that of the 2026 Olympic Games in Milan/Cortina in Italy. If the format is very telegenic since two skiers compete side by side on a small giant, the race has an anecdotal sporting interest and is shunned by most of the big names in the circuit, whether Marco Odermatt, Mikaela Shiffrin or Federica Brignone.
To win, Italy had in turn eliminated Ukraine, France and Sweden – which completes the podium with Sara Hector, Estelle Alphand, Kristoffer Jakobsen, Fabian Ax Swartz.
With 13,500 spectators playful in the stands, the team parallel officially launched the world championships in Saalbach, which take place until February 16. The first individual test, a super-g women, is scheduled for Thursday.
