The words of Federica Brignone

Federica Brignone’s words on the eve of the two super-giants in La Thuile, in light of the program change on the Franco Berthod-3 slope. “I am experiencing something exciting, the anticipation here in the valley is growing by the hour, è a great event becauseé it involves the whole community’and I know every single person who is working in the’organization. There are children and kids from the ski clubs who will come dressed as a tiger, so many friends who will go up".

" I would have liked to race all three days, the cancellation of the downhill will allow me to get to the finals with the specialty leader bib, forò my dream would have been to race at home with this bib, in front of our fans. Already; five years ago I showed up here with the bib in the combined and then the same combined, which was originally scheduled, was cancelled".

"It’ a pity also becauseé the downhill on this slope suits my characteristics very well, I would have had maybe the chanceà to pick up a few more points than my opponents. Però we have to be good at adapting to every situation, especially not to lose concentration becauseé to make a mistake in this sport takes nothing”.
