When you have six racers crash in the same exact spot leading to at least two serious injuries , that leads me to believe there was a problem with the course !
Serious injuries in alpine ski have always been as nowadays as in the past, the courses have nothing to do with it . Both the Schwarz's & the Shiffrin's injuries are due to their technical lacks in downhill, you'd better stay out of speed events if you're not enough good . In this race Mikaela makes an elementary mistake being so imprepared in that easy turn, so...
I respectfully disagree with you Carlo. Mikaela Schiffrin, Corinne Suter, Michelle Gisin and Federica Brignone surely do not lack the technical skill to run the downhill. This happens every other year or so, where the course set has a spot where multiple racers crash in the same spot ! @@carlobrotto7132
Pretty obvious - the left hander is too tight following a jump that long and steep. Watch every jump there. The degree of slope propels every skier just fine - if there was runoff and a less tight turn. It's too far to land, plant, then guide yourself into that tight turn. On top of that - there's literally zero runoff. Bad course design, period.
Connie Suter got it worst and she hasn't even crashed. Just an awkward landing after a jump. Torn ACL. But she is a Woman of Steel, she will recover by next season.
All downhill is dangerous. It’s the greatest sport in the world because of that danger. These supreme athletes go into it with full knowledge of how dangerous it is.
This is a course where if you blink at the wrong moment you pay consequences. With some slight modifications with a snowcat this course could have been exciting and safer but these girls always are pushing it to the edge.

Downhill is dangerous expecially if you are not a specialist and/or you run for victory. You can't easily crash at 100 km/h without consequences. There are courses more difficult and dangerous than Cortina. The racers have not fallen "all in the same exact spot ". Some of them have not "fallen".
Yes, maybe the course was difficult. Maybe it wasn't. But it is not Wengen, and it is not Kitzbuhel. Such is the gap between the racers here, and those who plunge downhill on the great Alpine downhill courses.
It‘s pretty much the women‘s equivalent of Wengen and Kitzbühel. Certainly one of the most difficult downhill races in the Women‘s world cup. Seems like the jump was going farther than in the training, so people went in it with the wrong expectations as well.
Keep lawyers out of it…. Ski racing is KNOWN by all to be dangerous BUT the person (s) setting the gates need be mindful of danger…. And IF there is one spot on a course taking these pros down, then stopping the race to reset the gates should be an option (although the athletes who made it thru and did well will feel robbed…… Was it especially icy or sticky grabby snow ?????!!!!……. It’s a risky sport !!!!!
The course was not particularly difficult, it was an average one. This is supposed a downhill event : dear Shiffrin you may be #1 in slalom, but you are utter crap as downhill racer ! She was the only one to make such an embarrassing ELEMENTARY mistake. Period
Shiffrin has 4 DH , 5 SG wins and 18 podiums in speed , she was a World Cup winner and World Champion in Super G, plus this year so far she has excatly the same amount of wins in DH as anyone. One. So no, she is not utter crap, she never crashed like this but I guess until you crash at least once, you are not a real downhiller. Now she is. She will be fine.
@@coolgabe64 4 dh victories of which 2 fake not to say joke ones as I said in my previous comment in 12 yrs carrier ?! 🙂 Amazing achievement, Shiffrin is the goat of downhil !! 😂 I repeat : this year the dh she won ( better she gifted of by a 1way minded incapable setter) looked more a giant slalom than a true downhill, it was a joke that's why she won since Shiffrin sucks in speed competitions, she's not good for them, she's not fast enough in downhill, I dont know in what other ways to tell she's crap and not at Goggia's Suter's Gut's same level. You can keep on posting your childish garbage trying to change true facts like a high school boy, I'll reply posting the truth ! Shiffrin herself knows she sucks in speed events, she competes in 'cos he fears she cant win overall WC for the Gut Behrami being much competitive in this season. Post more multiaccounted ignorant troll.
Dang. That's a massive number of dnf's.
Thanks for the upload.
I wouldn't be able to watch this if it wasn't for this channel. 🎉

Its on two spots not in one.

Or a skill issue
Mik wasn't "imprepared" she missed the line by 15ft. Most of the girls were turning way too low considering the set. @@carlobrotto7132

Bad course setting. No time to turn on that gate after landing.. Very dangerous.
Maybe, but the racers could scrub speed, if they want to, before that jump.
Merci vielmals für das Video. Viel Unglück Heute! Schade.
Versuche dann noch das rennen hochzuladen, nicht nur die verunglückten
OMG!!…. Shiffren down but at least she got up !!!’
Having only one training session on this challenging course turned out to be dangerous.
Просто беда! Скорейшего всем выздоровления
Es lebe der Sport
Er ist gesund und macht uns hoart..

Suter tore her ACL without even crashing... This course is dangerous.

@@chadrew6 By that logic the Isle of man TT would be the greatest.
@@chadrew6 yes, it is part of the attraction. But that course is just too jumpy. Worse than Val Gardena.
Was DEI involved in the course setting here?
those jumps look so fun except for the fencing in the way.
This is a course where if you blink at the wrong moment you pay consequences. With some slight modifications with a snowcat this course could have been exciting and safer but these girls always are pushing it to the edge.
It's managent issue..Course does not seem to be right..
Neskutočné ... Toto je zvláštny ročník Svetového pohára.

Maybe slowdown a little ?
It's called a race.
You can just stay home if you plan to slow down
Pretty bad,worse watching it live on skiandsnowboard
There MUST BE an investigation and the course designers to suffer legal consequences as determined.🧐
That coarse is far too technical for the women to run
They have been running it for for 50 years by now.
The course was not particularly difficult, it was an average one. This is supposed a downhill event : dear Shiffrin you may be #1 in slalom, but you are utter crap as downhill racer ! She was the only one to make such an embarrassing ELEMENTARY mistake. Period
She has more downhill wins that most speed specialists on the circuit. I wouldn’t call that “utter crap.”
@@lipauma6934 , that is correct.
