Federica Brignone surprised even herself.

The words of Federica Brignone

After the mockery in the giant in Kronplatz, Federica Brignone è redeemed herself in a big way by triumphing in the downhill in Garmisch. Speaking to the official website of the "FISI", the skier from Valle d’Aosta did not hide her partial amazement at her extraordinary result.

"I was hoping to have a good race, but I never expected to be able to win. After practice we spent a lot of time at the video to figure out how to improve the lines in the sliding part where I was really paying a lot. I made good partials in the previous days, but never è it all came out well. The work paid off, soò I was really surprised to have won" began the blue skier.

"The"exit in the giant in Kronplatz charged me even more, but I did not put too much pressure on myself, because"I did not think I could defend the red bib. I want to give my best in every race. I have had so many good moments in my life, both sports and daily, I have had so many belel things and this è one of the best chapters. Now I want to try to think race by race, without thinking too much about the ranking, which for me è one of the most difficult things to do" added the skier from Valle d’Aosta.

"I think it is a very special moment for our team, we are doing something great for the whole Italian movement. Sofia and I are very determined people, we are hard workers, we look for attention to detail and all aspects to be the best version of ourselves. Going strong has helped us both. She è has always been better than me in the downhill and I think it will be a good challenge" Federica Brignone commented.
