I watched Shiffrin win the final slalom race of the season by an amazing 1.58 sec.

Simply amazing. She raced all out even though she had the World Cup title sewn up already.

She is simply on a different level entirely.



Vonn had 5 wins this season; if she also wins 5 next season she will pass Stenmark by 1 victory. It will be very tight, I think.

I agree about Vonn. She's not at the level she once was while still amazing but she's a little older. If she can avoid crashing she has a chance.
I kind of want Shiffrin to stay out of the speed events, mainly the downhill. it too easy to really get hurt.
