Peter Fill was also fast in the second downhill training

As on Tuesday, the route was also shortened on Wednesday. In contrast to the previous day, the athletes started from above, i.e. from the original start, and then drove to the water station. The athletes were able to put the entire slope to the test over the two days - even if the shortened start was viewed critically by some drivers, especially since the weather was nice in Wengen on Wednesday.

The Austrian Matthias Mayer was fastest on the section. He beat the Swiss Carlo Janka (+0,24 seconds) and his compatriot Max Franz (+0,41). Peter Fill finished the training session in sixth place, 86 hundredths of a second behind and therefore remains in wait. On Tuesday he set the best time. Dominik Paris, on the other hand, ended up in 20th place, while Christof Innerhofer canceled his participation in the races.

Bad weather is forecast for Thursday, so training has been canceled. The race management wants to decide whether the downhill run will take place on Saturday as planned, or whether the slalom will be brought forward and the big highlight will not take place until Sunday. In any case, the start of the Wengen weekend will take place on Friday at the Alpine Combined.
