After the season highlight of the speed specialists with the downhill race in Kitzbühel on the Streif, it is now the
turn of
the
technicians
.
The
24th night slalom in Schladming
is
coming up
.
The
floodlit spectacle
on the Planai in Austria is one of the highlights of the World Cup season for fans of alpine skiing *.
However, this time the finish stadium in Schladming is not transformed into a
cauldron
with thousands of ski fans from all over the world,
as is usually the case
.
Due to the corona, no spectators are allowed.
So far, no German has won the night race on the Planai.
The closest thing to it was
Felix Neureuther
, who was on the podium with his third place in 2014 and 2015.
Henrik Kristoffersen
triumphed
for the fourth time last year.
The Norwegian is currently looking for his form.
The Flachau winners
Manuel Feller
from Austria and
Sebastian Foss-Solevaag
from Norway are
among the favorites
.
The overall World Cup leader
Alexis Pinturault
is one of
the favorites, as is
Marco Schwarz,
who leads the Slalom World Cup
.

The DSV cracks also have a hot iron in the fire.
Ski lion
Linus Straßer
wants to show off at the “Nightrace”.
Born in Munich, he is in
top form
and celebrated his first World Cup victory this season in Zagreb.
This was followed by a second place in Adelboden.
In Flachau, with fifth place, another top result jumped out.
A day later, however, the
28-year-old got involved
and dropped out.
"Now we have a bit of air," he said, looking at the short break until the next gate run in
Schladming
.
He wanted to use this to “train well and rest a bit and then attack again”.
In
Schladming
, Straßer wants to "attack fully" again.
"If you want to play at the front, you have to take risks," explained the slalom measure in the show
Blickpunkt Sport
.
