Cortina, January 19, 2025 – Sofia Goggia e Federico Brignonealways them. Fourth success of his career at Cortina for the Bergamo woman, equalled Isolde Costnerpodium for the tiger from La Salle very useful for the general classification of Ski World Cup. And today, Sunday 19th January, it’s repeated with the super giant. Italy is a big protagonist on the Olympic track of Olimpia delle Tofane and is looking for a second success to give another joy to the splendid home crowd. Sofia wants another victory on her ‘home’ track, Brignone is looking for important points to distance Rast and Hector: everything is at stake for the crystal ball.
The standings and the favourites
Federica’s third place in downhill Brignone gave her back the red bib as leader of the general classification with 539 points, ahead of Camille’s 533 Grow and Sara’s 507 Hector. Also goggia she climbed back up to 385 in the week, but she would need a second success in the super giant to definitively get back in the running. In the specialty rankings, however, Lara leads Good Behrami with 205 points, ahead of Sofia goggia with 160, pays the zero of St. Anton, and the 158 of Cornelia Huetter. As for the favourites, there are skiers who will want to redeem themselves and the names are Lara Gut Behrami, multiple winner in Cortina and disappointed by the downhill, Cornelia Huetter and Ester Ledecka. Goggia, obviously, will be among the candidates for a historic encore but now, in an Olimpia delle Tofane more hers, there is also Fede Brignonewhich can stretch in general. Outsider Macuga, Curtoni, Raedler and Pirovano. Still to be verified Lindey Vonnwho took a lot of risks on the way down but without finding the right strategy.
