Italy's Federica Brignone clears a gate during a women's giant slalom World Cup race in the Swedish ski resort of Are December 12, 2009. Former ski racer Maria Rosa Quario could find herself standing in the media zone at the finish line at the Vancouver Olympics reporting on her own daughter's race. Quario's 19-year-old daughter Brignone has been attracting attention on the Alpine ski circuit and is tipped to become the first child of a former race winner to follow a parent on to the top step of a World Cup podium.
