Birkner de Miguel, Pau win final SAC slalom races

By Published On: September 14th, 2017Comments Off on Birkner de Miguel, Pau win final SAC slalom races

South American Cup (SAC) racing action continued this week in Cerro Catedral, Argentina, with the final men’s and women’s slalom races of the season on Sept. 13.

Nuria Pau of Spain took the second SAC win of her career, winning by 0.30 seconds over a field of 32 athletes. Macarena Simari Birkner of Argentina earned a second-place result with a total time of 1:27.57. Fellow Argentine Salome Bancora of Spain rounded out the top three, 0.97 seconds away from the win.

Because this was the final slalom race, Pau locked up the SAC slalom title on Wednesday while Bancora ended the SAC slalom season as the top South American athlete. Pau also leads the overall SAC standings, but Noelle Barahona of Chile is the top ranked South American athlete in third position.

In the men’s race, Argentina’s Tomas Birkner de Miguel took the top spot with a total time of 1:17.98, scoring an 18-point race. He was chased by Axel Esteve of Andorra in second place, who had never been on the podium in a Continental Cup race before. Sebastiano Gastaldi of Argentina used his momentum from a three-win streak in giant slalom to earn third place, 0.58 seconds away from the win.

Gastaldi continues to lead the SAC overall rankings on the men’s side with 445 points, more than 100 ahead of Birkner de Miguel. However, Birkner de Miguel was able to edge out Gastaldi by ten points in the SAC slalom rankings to take the discipline title.

SAC racing continues on Sept. 14 with a giant slalom.
