Slovak skier Petra Vlhová did not improve her position in the second giant slalom in Courchevel, France, on Tuesday, when she finished fourth.

In Wednesday’s huge slalom, she was fifth after the first round and finished in the same place after the second round. She lost up to 1.24 seconds to the winner Sara Hector. After the race, she was extremely critical in the interview for JOJ Šport.

“I still have to train a little, today I was a little tired. Anyway, I’m still there and I’m still scoring. I do my best. Unfortunately, it didn’t come on stage again.

Yesterday and today, I lose a lot right after the start, I get the first 15 goals in half a second, that’s a lot. In the second round, I lost from start to finish. The track was broken, I couldn’t adapt as well as the other racers. I have to train and I hope to get closer to them. “

Coach Matej Gemza also commented on her performance for JOJ Šport. “It’s good, but it’s not to your satisfaction. We are missing something small, we are working on it. From a tactical point of view, it was well managed, maybe if she was a little more relaxed and went with more ease. “

What role did the fact that she didn’t ski for almost a month, but only train, play in her performances? “We had a large training camp behind us. We are tuning the form for the February Olympics, we are not panicking. It’s such a standard, from full training to coming to a race and not being completely top. It’s a good sign that the top is coming. “ revealed Gemza.

After the race, Petra Vlhová moves to Italy, where she and her family will spend the upcoming Christmas holidays. He will then move to Lienz, Austria, where there is a huge slalom and slalom on the 28th and 29th of December.
