This Sunday morning, the Super-G scheduled in Kvitfjell, Norway, was canceled due to bad weather conditions. The consequences are not disabling for the current second in the Alexis Pinturault ranking, whose speed is not the specialty. He did not hide the fact that the cancellation was a better thing for him: "We are not going to hide it, it's a good thing for me!" Especially because I had the number one bib. With the snow falling, leaving with the 1 was not a good thing. Yesterday was a great day on the downhill, hard to tell that overnight it can change so much and that the race can be canceled. What is certain is that Kilde is still the leader, it will be tight until the end. The big winner of the day is Henrik (Kristoffersen). He did not come here, and with the super-G that does not happen, he loses 0 point on Kilde, 0 on me. I am the second winner, because in theory I am less strong than Kilde in this discipline, her strong discipline. What is certain is that Kilde is still the leader, it will be tight until the end, ”we read in an interview with Le Dauphiné.
