Hirscher on the Kandahar in a class of his own – Eisath strong

For a while it looked as if Marcel Hirscher had a huge lead again in the final run over the runner-up. But then an old competitor came onto the scene. Ted Ligety, who started the race with number 13, came within 63 hundredths of the Salzburger. That's still a big gap, but Hirscher was in a class of his own, especially in the extremely steep free fall.

Strong sign of life from Eisath – Mölgg outside the top 10

While Manfred Mölgg didn't end up in the top ten, Florian Eisath showed strong signs of life. The Eggentaler, who is not sure of taking part in the Olympics, is in an excellent sixth place after the first run - at the same time as speed specialist Aleksander Aamodt Kilde. You are 1,18 seconds behind Hirscher. Eisath is only 24 hundredths short of the podium. Riccardo Tonetti, however, had a less good first run on the difficult Kandahar track. He is 2,23 seconds behind. Alex Hofer, however, did not make it to the finish line.

Hirscher on the Kandahar in a class of his own – Eisath strong

There aren't many giant slaloms on the World Cup calendar that are run on a downhill course. The one in Garmisch-Partenkirchen does. But one thing hasn't changed: the fastest.
