Minichiello, along with Jackie Gunn, collected the bronze medal in round five of the World Cup yesterday- a race arranged to replace the cancelled World Cup round in Cesana before Christmas.
And she produced a carbon copy performance today - this time alongside Gillian Cooke - with another bronze in World Cup round six, which also doubled as the European Championships.
Minichiello is now ranked fifth in the World Cup rankings with two rounds, at the 2010 Olympic venue Whistler and 2002 Olympic venue Park City, still to come before February's World Championships at Lake Placid.
The Germans dominated both events, with Sandra Kiriasis and Berit Wiacker winning both golds, and Cathleen Martini and Janine Tischer collecting both silvers.
