Swiss bobsledder Melanie Hasler embarks on the new Bob season with significant changes in equipment and coaching staff. She faces her first major test this weekend in Altenberg, aiming to improve her performance after last season’s struggles. Hasler has acquired a new sled with financial support from her local club and looks forward to training under former national coach Wolfgang Stampfer, who returns to guide the team. Meanwhile, her partner Michael Vogt continues recovery from surgery, with plans to test a new sled in Lillehammer.
