    1. Looking out of the starting gate of the WC Finals DH track.
    2. Dave Ryding finished the 2nd run of every World Cup Slalom of the last 2 seasons and reached the 2nd run in all of his 67 last World Cup Slaloms! He is the 2nd racer in the last 15 years to be ranked in every SL 2 years in a row. Marcel Hirscher even had 3 consecutive seasons (16/17 - 18/19).
    3. Mika is still the one to beat (Highlights from Levi)

    1. A simple illustration of "racer" technique
    2. WC Race Calendar 26/27
    3. We journalists tend to talk about the winners. 🎈 But there would be no competition without those who drive them with their results. There would be no World Cup without all World Cup racers. ⛷️Their skiing is far beyond anything we can do. And still, they get little attention.
