I'm happy to belong to this group of top champions having excelled here.

I still have many goals left, especially the Overall World Cup standings.

I lost races because I wanted too much to win them in beating my rivals.

The crowd is wonderful. There is always a superb atmosphere in the finish area. It's good for the World Cup. I missed it a lot when I had to rest and it's so nice to be back here.

My attitude on skis is different now. I have learned to put less pressure on myself and on the edges of my skis when I'm racing, to be keep myself more under control.
