Overview
- Starting 29th, Czech Jan Zabystran won the Val Gardena super‑G by 0.22 seconds over Marco Odermatt, delivering his country’s first men’s World Cup victory.
- A day earlier, Odermatt claimed his 50th World Cup win in a fog‑delayed, shortened Saslong descent and now leads the overall by 383 points, with a full Saslong descent and the Alta Badia giant still to come.
- France’s speed team posted encouraging results in the Dolomites, with Nils Allègre fourth in both races, Matthieu Bailet fifth in the super‑G, and Nils Alphand fifth in the first descent.
- In biathlon at Grand‑Bornand, Emilien Jacquelin finished third in the men’s sprint behind Norway’s Vetle Sjaastad Christiansen and Johannes Dale‑Skjevdal, with Eric Perrot eighth as the pursuit start list stays tightly bunched.
- Hanna Öberg leads the women’s pursuit start by three seconds over Lou Jeanmonnot, with Justine Braisaz‑Bouchet and Julia Simon also in contention and the yellow bib within reach for Jeanmonnot given Anna Magnusson’s distant start.
