17 years ago, Alberto Tomba celebrated the last Italian Slalom win on the Ganslern Slope. Ranking fourth after the first run, Cristian Deville pulled out the stops in the second, paving the way to his first Slalom World Cup Victory. After his second place in Beaver Creek and third in Flachau, the likable 31 year old will be taking the top step on the winner’s podium for the first time today.
„Today was just a fantastic day. As I was lagging behind after the first run, I didn’t reckon on making the podium. In the second run I just risked everything and was totally surprised, that I had been fast enough to win. Now I just want to enjoy this moment and celebrate it”, Cristian Deville stated after the Race.
