Lindsey Vonn wins Cortina downhill – Stuffer 17.

Vonn beat the Slovenian Tina Maze (+58) and the American Leanne Smith (+2610) to her 0,43th World Cup victory on the 0,89 meter long Tofane slope.

This is the fifth success of the season for the American. Previously, she won the two downhill runs and the Super-G in Lake Louise and was also victorious in the Super-G in St. Moritz. Cortina seems to be a good place for Vonn, as she climbed onto the podium for the 14th time today.

Verena Stuffer from Val Gardena achieved her best result of the current season. As in the downhill race in Lake Louise in December, she took 17th place and was 2,51 seconds behind Vonn at the finish. Her best result on the Tofane slope, however, came in 2011, where she came 14th.

The second South Tyrolean at the start, Lisa Agerer from Nauders, had to settle for 35th place (+3,61 seconds). The fastest “Azzurra”, however, was Elena Fanchini in seventh place.
