Strong Fischer rookies achieve fantastic team result

Aubert clinches victory in familiar style in Åre

As in the previous year it was a Fischer racer who put in a sensational performance again in the Slalom in Åre (SWE). Sandrine Aubert (FRA) won the race with the fastest time in the second run, beating the two Riesch (GER) sisters – who had previously dominated in Slalom – by 45 and 96 hundredths of a second.
Poor visibility and a rutty course did not unsettle the tall Frenchwoman. After second place in the first run Aubert went on to risk everything in the second and put in a sensational performance.
A good team performance underscored the current strength of Fischer's women's team. Young German racer Katharina Dürr stood out in particular. The fourth fastest time in the second run saw her climb from 23rd to 14th place - her third best World Cup result ever. The other results: Nicole Gius (ITA) 11th, Kathrin Hölzl (GER) 16th, Maruša Ferk (SLO) 25th.
