Congrats to Mikaela for her victory in the Slalom today in Sestriere, Italy. Her margin of victory over the two runs was 1.09 seconds. http://www.fis-ski.com/alpine-skiing/ev ... ace=86923/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
She finished 6th in the GS yesterday. She still stands at the top of the overall WC leader board, 105 points ahead of Lara Gut. Next event is Downhill in Val d`Isere, France next Saturday.
Cool. Thanks for posting, Liv4ski! The commentary in German made her runs that much more dramatic! I only understood "Schnell" and "Mikaela Shiffrin" plus a few numbers. Mikaela completed a decent turn with the snapped slalom pole between her skis! Nice!
You gotta like the magnum of champagne (Slovenian bubbly?) spray for the podium winners! That's gotta be a lot of fun.
