Mayer crashes the Kilde party

For a while on Saturday afternoon everything looked like a victory for local hero Aleksander Aamodt Kilde. The Norwegian, who was the fastest in both training runs, started the race with start number 3 and conjured up a brilliant best time in the snow, which the competition then seemed to have to cut their teeth on. But Mayer left the starting house with starting number 13. The Austrian drove flawlessly in bright sunshine and was 14 hundredths of a second faster than Kilde, who took the lead in the overall World Cup from Alexis Pinturault with second place. The Frenchman, who competed in a World Cup downhill for the first time in over 2 years on Saturday, did not finish in the points. Kilde is now 1 points ahead of Pinturault in the overall World Cup. Feuz gets the downhill ball After the World Cup final in Cortina was canceled, Beat Feuz was already confirmed as the winner of the Downhill World Cup before the race. The Swiss won the small crystal ball for the third time in a row. The 3-year-old showed once again in Kvitfjell that he is consistency personified, even if he narrowly missed the podium in 33th place. Third place went to compatriot Carlo Janka, who was 4 hundredths of a second faster. Mattia Casse ended up as the best Azzurro in 13th place. The only South Tyrolean at the start, Florian Schieder, did not make it to the finish.
