I'm happy to belong to this group of top champions having excelled here.

I lost races because I wanted too much to win them in beating my rivals.

I sat down with my trainers to check my past seasons and to see what could be done to keep me motivated and in good shape. I had to find a new motivation, a new momentum.

Ski racing, especially downhill, is a dangerous activity and there are many accidents. It would be really too bad to lose everything because of a crash.

I still have more to fight for in the coming years.

I won a great giant slalom in Japan last week, and it gave me momentum for this final part of the season.

I trained well this week but I think it will take some time until I recover my best rhythm in this specialty.

It's good to ski for fun, but I still want to win races as often as possible.

I planned to stop in 2002 after the Salt Lake City Olympics. I felt able to remain competitive another four years, and I wanted to stop while I'm still at the top.

My attitude on skis is different now. I have learned to put less pressure on myself and on the edges of my skis when I'm racing, to be keep myself more under control.

I like to win. If I lose, I'm not very happy.
