Strong as a bear: Lara Gut-Behrami celebrates her 41st World Cup victory in the Super-G in Cortina.

Reaching the finish safely is the most important thing for Lara Gut-Behrami (32) this Sunday. “It wasn’t an outing, I started aggressively. But my thought was not to risk anything. I didn’t drive the smallest radius.”

Nevertheless, the woman from Ticino eventually celebrated her 41st World Cup victory, overtaking ski legend Pirmin Zurbriggen (40 victories). “It could have been faster, but I had other priorities today. I wanted to ride strong and finish healthy.”

Shiffrin is still missing 195 points

Gut-Behrami succeeds extremely well in both. In contrast to the two descents, there are no mistakes in the ride – especially in the lower section she knows how to close the bends quickly like no other. Slider? No.

With her victory she takes the lead in the Super-G World Cup – she also wears the red leader’s number in the giant slalom. At the same time, Gut-Behrami is closing in on the injured Mikaela Shiffrin (28, USA) in the overall World Cup – the American’s lead shrinks to 195 points.

The Swiss team is battered

After 2016, will Gut-Behrami also win the big crystal ball in 2024? “I don’t think about it. These tough days in Cortina have once again shown how crucial it is to stay healthy. The many waterfalls are amazing. My goal is to still be whole in March – then we’ll see. ”

And the other Swiss women? They are so mentally exhausted that not much more is possible. Jasmine Flury (30) finished 13th and the newly recruited Noémie Kolly (25) finished in a respectable 16th place.
