ALPINE SKIING: The mixed parallel slalom team with Federica Brignone, Luca de Aliprandini, Marta Bassino and Alex Vinatzer reached the quarterfinals but were defeated by the United States team 3-1. The last test of alpine skiing, postponed yesterday due to the strong wind, did not give much hope to the blue formation that in the eighth round had beaten Russia 3-1. In the next round, however, Paula Moltzan, Tommy Ford, River Radamus, have successfully completed their test for the stars-striped team. The only satisfaction was taken away by Marta Bassino who got the better of Mikaela Shiffrin.
