Overview
- Organizers canceled the second training run and moved the downhill to the Gamskogelhütte reserve start, cutting roughly 25 seconds from the course under FIS rules.
- Lindsey Vonn, 41, won in 1:06.24 to extend her record as the oldest World Cup winner, with Kajsa Vickhoff Lie second and Jacqueline Wiles third.
- Laura Pirovano finished fourth, missing a first World Cup podium by 0.15 seconds; Nicol Delago was ninth and Elena Curtoni tenth.
- Sofia Goggia placed 17th and described the soft, fresh-snow surface as "at the limit," a view also voiced by Pirovano.
- The race was interrupted after Austria’s Magdalena Egger crashed and was airlifted for medical checks, and focus now shifts to Sunday’s scheduled super‑G, weather permitting.
