Courcheval

[jbotti]

I watched the GS from Courcheval this afternoon. The only place that I can find it is on Peacock. NBCSN is carrying almost no events. I will make one prediction from watching the race, I think Laura Gut will win a SG or two this year. Her second run today was really strong and very much like the Gut pre injury. As well the conditions and the visibility were pretty brutal today. Racers that are still unsure of themselves due to previous injuries never race well in these conditions and Gut would have put them sideways often on a course like this last year or the year before. She must be healthy and able to trust the knee.

As for Mikaela, she made 2 pretty good sized errors (one which was huge) in her second run and finished 5th. I think she was pretty disgusted with herself judging by the body language.

Marta Bassino won her second GS this year and appears to be a cut above the rest right now.
