Worrying scenes took place in Davos on Saturday morning. 26-year-old Nicole Good fell badly at the Swiss Ski Championships.
Good with starting number 10 was no longer able to hold on in a right-hand bend around 15 seconds after the start. She hit her head on the floor and lay motionless. According to “Blick” information Good came to again. A helicopter flew them to the Chur hospital.
Swiss-Ski reports that she suffered a concussion and fractures in her face. “Nicole was still accessible at the scene of the accident and the investigations have now shown that, fortunately, she did not suffer a serious brain injury,” Walter O. Frey, chief physician at Swiss-Ski, is quoted as saying in the communiqué, which was published in the afternoon.
The race was initially interrupted for 20 minutes and then canceled. Due to the high temperatures, the planned men’s Super-G cannot take place. The races are scheduled to take place on Sunday.

The Vigezzina-Centovalli railway crosses 83 bridges and passes through 31 tunnels. It connects Switzerland with Italy and is the most direct route between the Gotthard and Simplon lines. The legendary narrow-gauge railway in southern Switzerland will celebrate its 100th anniversary in 2023/24.
Until the beginning of the 20th century, there were only dead-end roads from Locarno and Domodossola in the Centovalli and Vigezzo Valley. A mule track was the only connection between the two valleys until a road was opened in 1907. At the same time, a railway line was also considered.
