At the next World Cup stage scheduled from Friday, March 6 to Sunday, March 8 in Val di Fassa, the Italian women’s team will feature Sofia Goggia, Laura Pirovano, Elena Curtoni, Nicol Delago, Nadia Delago, Roberta Melesi, Asja Zenere, Sara Allemand, Sara Thaler and Ilaria Ghisalberti: Notable is the absence of Federica Brignone, who, back from a recovery-option ahead of the Milan Cortina 2026 Winter Olympics, has decided to end her season prematurely. The weekend’s program includes two downhill runs on Friday 6 and Saturday 7, followed by a super-giant on Sunday 8.

“I am happy with my performance in the super-G: I think it is the result of a lot of work done in the giant as well, in this discipline that is a perfect combination of technique and speed. Reality says, however, that there is to stay on the piece: on Tuesday we already start again towards Val di Fassa and there will be many races in a few weeks. The Specialty Cup remains a dream and I keep my concentration day by day to try to achieve it” said Goggia.

Brignone, who put two splendid gold medals around her neck in the Five Circles event, explained the reason for a decision that seemed in the air after the weekend in Soldeu, Andorra. “I think I have asked a lot of my body over the course of these months – she recounted -From the very day I got injured, I have dedicated all of myself to the goal of participating in the 2026 Milan Cortina Olympics”,

“At the Olympics I achieved the double achievement of carrying the tricolor flag and standing on the podium. I even did it on two occasions, moreover climbing on the top step of the podium. I tried to continue the season, now, however, my physique is presenting me with a bill” added the champion, who was the victim of a terrible injury on April 3 last year.

“So I am taking advantage of the season now at the end of the line to give myself a break and subsequently continue rehabilitation to the best of my ability, which has been logically forced over all this time to arrive at the miracle we have been able to accomplish. I thank all those who believed in the Olympic dream and allowed me to get back on my feet and participate in this season” concluded the Carabiniere from Valle d’Aosta.
