"It was a tough race because visibility was very low. I could not see anything in the steep section," said Maze. She added that she needed a short break, as she was not feeling her best.

Next weekend, the World Cup is coming to Slovenia with Maze firmly at the top of the standings with 1,474 points, more than double of her closest pursuer Maria Höfl Riesch of Germany, who has collected 756 points so far.
