  • The CARRERA SKI RACING TEAM Lines up Its Champions for an Exciting New Season
    SKI WORLD CUP 2010-2011 The CARRERA SKI RACING TEAM lines up its champions for an exciting new season October 2010 – The Ski World Cup officially starts and the CARRERA SKI RACING TEAM 2010/2011 enters with a strong line-up of first-class champions. The first name to mention among the athletes that will be descending on the slopes this winter season wearing the CARRERA brand is Carlo Janka, the young Swiss athlete, who last year won the General World Cup for the downhill and giant slalom races. Along with Janka, we will also be seeing the Swede Anja Paerson, the Austrians Rainer Schoenfelder and Michael Walchhofer, who with Elisabeth Goergl and Mario Scheiber will be giving the White Circus fans some terrific emotions. The CARRERA SKI RACING TEAM 2010/2011 will also count the Swiss talent Marc Berthod, among its ranks, who in the past seasons achieved brilliant results in his disciplines. The novelties of this season are the two promising young Finns, Markus Sandell, who despite a serious fall was able to participate in the Vancouver Olympic Games; and Andreas Romar, the bronze medal winner in the 2009 Junior World Ski Championships. Some big names in Nordic skiing also stand out including the Olympic ski-jumping champion Thomas Morgenstern and the World ski-jumping champion Gregor Schlierenzauer. For the winter season 2010/2011, CARRERA is the official supplier of ski helmets and goggles for the teams of Austria, Finland, Italy, Sweden, Switzerland and Japan. Athletes such as Austrians Stefan Goergl, Johan Grugger, Andrea Fischbacher, Cristoph Bieler and Romed Baumann, and the Swede Therese Borssen will race in the various Alpine and Nordic ski disciplines, always protected by the CARRERA products.

Only Maiken Caspersen Falla (NOR, 10) has claimed more sprint World Cup wins since the start of 2014/15 than Nilsson (9).
