Peter Fill sets the tone at the Lauberhorn

Peter Fill was in excellent form during the first test drive and impressively underlined his podium ambitions. The veteran from South Tyrol stopped the timekeeping at 1:45,55 minutes. He was 11 hundredths ahead of the Austrian Max Franz and 16 hundredths ahead of Beat Feuz from Switzerland.

Dominik Paris also made a strong impression in ninth place (+0,62 seconds). Combiner Riccardo Tonetti, on the other hand, crossed the finish line with a considerable gap. The injured Christof Innerhofer did not take part in the first training session.

An alpine combination will be taking place in Wengen on Friday. According to weather forecasts, whether the downhill run will take place on Saturday or in exchange for the slalom on Sunday will not be decided until Thursday.
