Defender Marco Caviezel won the first men’s sprint of the season on Saturday. In difficult conditions of slope and visibility, the Swiss prevailed in the shortened Super-G of Val d’Isere ahead of the Norwegian Adrian Smiseth Sejersted (+0.10 seconds) and the Carinthian Christian Walder (+0.54), who for the first time he took the podium in his career.
For Caviezel it was the first World Cup victory, only in June had the Achilles tendon torn.
Vincent Kriechmayr was fifth, Matthias Mayer was eleventh after 37 runners. Alexis Pinturault took the sole lead of the World Cup on the seventh day ahead of Swiss Marco Odermatt (13th). Ahead, nothing should change in qualifying because it started to snow more and more.
A relegation is on the Sunday program. The races were exchanged due to the weather forecast.
