In Are weekend Federica Brignone doubles up

Tomorrow and Sunday, a World Cup giant slalom and slalom will be held on the snows of Are, and Federica Brignone, in addition to the wide gates, where in the specialty ranking she is 135 points behind Lara Gut when there are two races left, will also compete in the narrow gates.

Tomorrow, the 33-year-old Val d’Aosta star will defend the Italian colors in the giant slalom along with Marta Bassino, Lara Della Mea, Roberta Melesi, Elisa Platino and Asja Zenere, and on Sunday she will take to the slopes in the slalom, her second time of the season in the specialty after the one in Lienz on December 29, along with Della Mea, Lucrezia Lorenzi, Martina Peterlini, Marta Rossetti and Vera Tschurtschenthaler.

“In the skiing on the slope today you couldn t see very well  says Brignone to fisi.org -. The snow è spring like I like, the heat melted it but then at night è froze, we will have to see what will happen to the hump that formed. We found a hard ground that we have been missing for a long time, it has been good training these last few days”.

“I willò take part in both the giant and the slalom – continued Federica -, between the narrow poles I have skied recently for only two days, I dispute it becauseé I like it, I have never had opportunities to do it during the season and certainly not in view of the overall ranking. It remains a specialtyà in which I dream of placing a good result in my career to leave a mark here too, I don’t know where I stand but I do this test for fun, without expectations of result”.
