Dominik Paris files claims in Wengen

In the end, no one really came close to Max Franz's record. The Austrian distanced Aleksander Aamodt Kilde by over five tenths of a second, followed by Dominik Paris (+0,93). With this, the man from Ultimo underlined his ambitions: after his victory in Bormio at the end of the year, he now wants the next triumph. In his last appearance on the Lauberhorn downhill run (2020), he even achieved second place.

Beat Feuz probably has a big say in the victory. The local hero currently has three downhill victories in Wengen. The Swiss will also keep an eye on the discipline rankings. Paris leads there (227 points) ahead of Matthias Mayer (217) and Niels Hintermann (178). Feuz ranks fifth with 165 points. In the final training, the Swiss kept his cards hidden (+2,51). Innerhofer is also convincing For Christof Innerhofer, which had put a big exclamation mark the day before , it went to a solid seventh place (+1,24). The 37-year-old should finally have a sense of success again on the longest downhill route in the world. Riccardo Tonetti, the third South Tyrolean in the group, ended up 5,46 seconds behind. As always, training rides should be enjoyed with caution. The top drivers in particular rarely play with open cards.

On Wednesday the authorities got involved and didn't let the Austrian out of quarantine . This means that the 2019 winner is not eligible to take part in the Lauberhorn downhill runs.
