Katahrina Liensberger had a high-level first run during the Flachau slalom. The Austrian is more than seven tenths ahead of Wendy Holdener, 2nd.

It’s obvious. Neither Petra Vlhova nor Mikaela Shiffrin will win this Tuesday evening in Flachau. For good reason, neither of the two champions is at the start of this race. For the first time since 2017 and the victory of Frida Hansdotter, the winner will be a new face. The one who takes the advantage at the end of the first round is Katharina Liensberger.

Liensberger at his best

The skier from Vorarlberg took advantage of the easy course to gain speed, much more than her opponents. The Austrian only gained time and is 75 hundredths ahead of Wendy Holdener. An extraordinary performance during one of his home races. It was skiing that allowed her to be world champion 4 years ago. Sara Hector completes the provisional podium, 94 hundredths off the lead. The differences are significant.

Lamure straddles, Brèche top 20

Marie Lamure is on a good run with her first top 10, obtained in Kranjska Gora. Unfortunately, the skier from Courchevel, who was playing for a new provisional place in the 10, slipped away before the final part. A small fall, the 23-year-old slalom rider quickly gets back on her legs. But no points.

Chiara Pogneaux doesn’t really like this piece by Flachau. Haut-Alpine was not comfortable this evening either, his dynamism between the stakes was less than that of his opponents. She is relegated to more than four seconds and will not be in the second round. Unlike Clarisse Brèche. The Savoyarde ranks 18th and will have something to play for from 8:45 p.m.
