Extraordinary bis by Laura Pirovano in Val di Fassa: also wins the second descent, always for a penny

BOLZANO (ITALPRESS) – Laura Pirovano also grants the bis and triumphs in the second free descent of Val di Fassa. After yesterday’s success with a centenary advantage over Emma Aicher, the blue draws the same gap even to the Austrian Cornelia Huetter, who precedes the Swiss Corinne Suter (+0”05). The second career success (after eleven top-5 without podiums) projects Pirovano in the first place in the World Cup free to a race from the end, in front of the same Aicher, who had to settle for the twelfth position. Placement in top 10 for Nicol Delago who closes to ninth place at 1”03, like the Norwegian Mars Monsen, while Sofia Goggia is eleventh to 1”05. Further back Nadia Delago (17th to 1”24), Roberta Melesi (23rd to 1”58), Sara Thaler (25th to 1”63), Elena Curtoni (26th to 1”91). In the race also Asja Zenere (31th to 2”20) and Ilaria Ghisalberti (41th to 3”01).

“We have always talked about bad luck and in these two days I have drawn the account.” He told Rai Sport the blue. After eleven top 5 careers without any podium, Pirovano managed to win his first two races within 24 hours, both with a cent of advantage. “Today when I arrived at the finish line I believed less, because I didn’t feel as good as yesterday,” he explained. The first downhill victory has “regalated her many emotions but she has taken away many energies. When I saw the green light again for a penny I thought it was a joke.” Pirovano is now under the command of the free descent classification, at a race from the end: “I don’t want to think about it, it’s all a set of emotions that I struggle to manage. I am in the seventh heaven,” concluded Pirovano
