“Winterberg is a good place for me, and it showed again today. I feel very comfortable on this slope. It is very nice to finish in the top three in both the parallel slalom and the World Cup overall. If I had not suffered a hand injury ( Broken metatarsal bone, note) so close to the two races in Poland, perhaps more could have happened. Now I want to have another good team race with Andy (Prommegger, note) tomorrow. “The goal is to make a podium debut,” he said. Double-digit wins in one season. Sabine Schoffman. For Claudia Riegler (13) and Daniela Olbing (15), the opening round in Winterberg is over.
