Might become the winningest alpine skier of all time. Her power and technique are truly awesome. And she gives great interviews.

Great visuals for providing context between the different races. As a layman, it helped me understand so much more about skiing disciplines. Thank you!

La Mikaela Shiffrin è già una delle più grandi sportive di tutti i tempi,
tra tutti gli sport. Come tecnica legata al suo sport,
addirittura la più grande di sempre.

I can't stand the people who criticize Vonn for her opinions on politics, what she's now allowed to have them? How about you learn to respect those with differing views and stances and grow out of your high school mentality.
