Christof Innerhofer fastest in the 2nd training

The wind messed with the men's alpine skiing men's second downhill training at the Olympic Games, the start had to be postponed on Friday and then moved to the start of the Super-G. The fastest in Jeongseon was Gaiser Christof Innerhofer, 0,01 seconds ahead of Norwegian Kjetil Jansrud and 0,44 seconds ahead of Swiss Beat Feuz.

Peter Fill from Castelrotto came in 11th place, while Dominik Paris from Ultimo - with a goal error - reached 12th place. Riccardo Tonetti from Bolzano, who took part in training for the combination, also made a goal error and came in 51st place, eleven places ahead of Marcel Hirscher.

The Austrian defending champion Matthias Mayer was fourth like the day before (0,45), but made a goal error. “It's hard to say how much the wind affected everything today. It was harder to drive than yesterday, more unsettled. After yesterday, maybe everyone underestimated it a bit,” said Mayer.

On Thursday, Canadian Manuel Osborne Paradis was the fastest with Peter Fill as the best South Tyrolean. As on Friday, he finished 11th. The best trainee on Friday, Christof Innerhofer, reached 17th place. Osborne Paradis only came in 13th on Friday.

Another training session is planned for Saturday.
