The ski racer Petra Vlhova also won the second slalom of the weekend in Levi.

The 25-year-old achieved the fifth consecutive slalom victory in the World Cup in Lapland, Finland.

World and Olympic champion Mikaela Shiffrin, on the other hand, missed the podium in fifth place after her second place in the comeback on Saturday this time.

Shiffrin was 0.93 seconds behind.

Behind the Slovakian Vlhova came the Swiss Michelle Gisin (+0.31 seconds) and Katharina Liensberger from Austria (+0.50).

The German drivers could not convince: After three DSV athletes had finished in the points on Saturday, only Lena Dürr made it on Sunday.

The woman from Munich came in 21st place - mainly because of a botched first run. “We didn't attack enough.

Just shut it down - you won't win a flower pot, ”said head coach Jürgen Graller.
