Shiffrin roars back to win another World Cup slalom
American criticizes ‘unsafe’ Semmering conditions
Rast second as Colturi strengthens slalom challenge
Mikaela Shiffrin kept her winning streak intact but left Austria frustrated after edging Switzerland’s Camille Rast in a night slalom at Semmering, criticizing what she described as unsafe race conditions in the final women’s World Cup event of the calendar year.
The American rebounded from a sluggish opening run to post the fastest time in the evening session, finishing 0.09 seconds ahead of world champion Rast. Albania’s Italian-born prodigy Lara Colturi, 19, was 0.57 seconds back in third.
