Alpine skiing: Sara Hector second in the giant slalom in Åre

The Swede was the fastest of all in the first run, but in the second she had a tentative start and the run did not match the same way.

Although she was noted for the 25th best time in the second race, it was a nice second place.

Federica Brignone was third after the first race and was completely disrespected in the second where she was clearly the fastest, a whopping 51 hundredths ahead of her nearest competitor.

After two races, Brignone won with a margin of 33 hundredths over Hector.

– I wasn’t completely satisfied with the first race, it started really badly and I had no confidence, so in front of others I told myself that I have to test everything, says Brignone in the official victory interview.

– I love this hill and maybe I had a bit of luck on my side too. I am satisfied and proud.
