Federica Brignone over the moon after her 21st World Cup success

Federica Brignone commented happily to the microphones of Rai Sport on her 21st career World Cup success, which came after her triumph in the SuperG in St.Anton, Austria. “Twenty-first victory… big spree! – joked the skier from Valle d’Aosta -It was my second goal of the season after the 50th World Cup podium and I am really satisfied not only with the race but with how I skied, and with my attitude.”

“I’m happy with how confident I was from the middle of the slope onward,” continued Azzurra, “and that’s what satisfies me more than the result, more than the victory. I started very determined, I skied not great before the Ice Fall where I took a bump and I thought I threw the race away. I took advantage of my giant racer qualities, combined with my sprinter qualities. Now I have other goals, but my list has Italian races and Worlds in my sights. If I strike like this I can really enjoy myself.”
