Albanian-Italian skier Lara Colturi finished 13th in the latest World Cup slalom event in Austria, adding 20 valuable points to Albania’s total. The red-and-black flag flew proudly in the European Alps as the race unfolded.

Colturi clocked 58.91 seconds in her first run and 57.82 seconds in the second. With a combined time of 1:56.73, she secured 13th place, continuing her strong season where she has consistently ranked within the top 15.

Having previously placed second in two World Cup races, Lara is widely regarded as one of the most promising talents in women’s skiing. Her achievements have brought recognition to Albania in a sport that is not particularly popular in the country.
