Milan-Cortina, Pirovano: ‘I’ve turned the page after Crans Montana, I’m here to enjoy myself’

Cortina d’Ampezzo (Belluno), 6 February (LaPresse) – “The mistake in Crans Montana? I’ve turned the page, it’s my first Olympics, at home, I’m super happy, I’ve already put last week behind me. I’m here to enjoy it, then we’ll see what happens.” Laura Pirovano said this in the mixed zone at the end of the first timed downhill run at the Milan-Cortina Games, referring to her failure to win the last World Cup Super-G due to a mistake made a few metres from the finish line when she was virtually in the lead. ‘The course is very nice and fun, it’s a shame about the wait, which made the surface a little softer and more slippery, that wasn’t ideal. In the next few days, if it gets a little colder, it will be even more fun to ski,’ she added, returning to today’s race. “It’s such a complete and unusual course that every turn, every detail, every jump counts. There are a lot of bumps this year, so you have to pay attention in many places.”
