Can Suter help her teammate?
As mentioned, Lara Gut-Behrami would like to have a say in the fight for the crystal ball. To do this, however, she would have to take a few more points from Elena Curtoni, 20 to be precise. Of course, it would be helpful if riders pushed themselves between the two. From a Swiss point of view, Corinne Suter, who was seventh in the World Cup this season, could be expected to make this leap into the probable top region of the tableau. Overall, the Swiss are at the start today with six drivers. Wendy Holdener, Joana Hählen, Jasmine Flury and Michelle Gisin complete the team.

Red-white-red in the majority
Of the 26 runners starting today, seven are from Austria. This makes the ÖSV the largest team today. In addition to the aforementioned Cornelia Hütter, Mirjam Puchner (8th place in the World Cup) and Stephanie Venier (10th place) were able to stand out in this Super-G winter. Franziska Gritsch, Nina Ortlieb, Nicole Schmidhofer and Ramona Siebenhofer will also be there.

The fight for the crystal ball
It is not uncommon for the decision in the World Cup to be made before the World Cup final, the little crystal ball already taken. However, this is not the case at all in the Super G this year. For example, there are just 26 points between Elena Curtoni at the top and Ragnhild Mowinckel in fourth. In between, the Swiss Lara Gut-Behrami and the Austrian Cornelia Hütter are in second and third place, both of whom want to be there should Curtoni leave the door to the World Cup victory open.

26 runners are taking part!
In the World Cup final, the field is made up as follows: The 25 best riders in the discipline World Cup, the junior world champion and all runners who have collected over 500 points in the overall World Cup are eligible to participate. The latter applies, for example, to the Slovenian Ilka Stuhec, who is only 30th in the Super-G World Cup with 51 points, but has a total of 602 World Cup points under his belt. However, the junior world champion Lara Colturi from Albania is not there today. In the end there is a starting field of 26 athletes for today’s race.
