Ski Alpin: Seventh overall World Cup victory!

Marcel Hirscher’s victory in the Kranjska Gora slalom was the seventh consecutive victory of the overall World Cup. That’s what the exceptional expert said after his 57th birthday. World Cup victory.

Marcel Hirscher (World Cup winner):”It’s not for packing. It’s so weird. The summer this year was not entirely without – there with the knuckles around, partly from the career end to the best season. I can’t believe it. I’m not checking that it’s possible and that it’s possible. It’s so heavy down there. There are holes, there are walls. And to know that Henrik (Kristoffersen) has presented it again. He won’t let up. Hats off – the future belongs to this man. It performs, performs, performs and simply makes no mistakes. It’s very tedious with Mr Henrik.”

Hirscher to his goals:”I do not know. Frankly, I’m happy to be able to drive home now. I have to think for myself where the journey is going. I don’t understand for myself that this is the way it works:”I don’t know if he’s going to compete in the World Cup next season.”
