EC in Reinswald: Swiss double victory in the first Super-G

Gian Luca Barandun was the only one of the 1834 starters to complete the 106 meter long Schöneben slope in under 1.12 minutes. The 23-year-old Swiss won his first European Cup victory in 1.11,78:27 minutes. He gained his lead over the competition primarily in the lower part of the route. In the end, Barandun, who had already been in the points six times in the World Cup and was on the podium for the fifth time in the European Cup, was a full 100/29 seconds faster than his compatriot Mauro Caviezel. The 3-year-old finished in the top XNUMX in the European Cup for the fifth time. Caviezel also has a podium finish to his name in the World Cup: a year ago he took third place in the Super-G in Aspen (USA).

The Austrian Daniel Danklmaier fought for third place in the Super-G in Reinswald. The 24-year-old from Aich in Styria lost 0,31 seconds to the day's winner Barandun on his eighth European Cup podium. For Danklmaier it was already the second podium in Reinswald this week after he also finished the Alpine Combined in third place on Wednesday.

Prast is eliminated with an interim best time Alexander Prast from Terlan was on his way to a possible top placement. The 21-year-old South Tyrolean was in the lead at the first split before he slipped on the last steep slope and retired. “That really annoys me. It's a shame because I was really strong. But now I can’t change that and I have to accept it,” Prast commented on his failure. The best “Azzurro” was Florian Schieder, a local racer. The 22-year-old from Castelrotto took 21st place - 1,16 seconds behind first place.

The 13th European Cup week in Reinswald ends on Friday with the second Super-G. The race starts at 10.30:XNUMX a.m.
