Before the downhill classic
Best time for Hrobat in 1st training in Beaver Creek
Miha Hrobat has already released the handbrake in the first training session in Beaver Creek, but like many others made a mistake!
The Slovenian was six tenths faster than the downhill top stars Marco Odermatt (+0.61) and Cyprien Sarrazin (+0.62) in 2nd and 3rd place in the speed opening of the men's alpine skiing. The fastest Austrian without a gate error was Vincent Kriechmayr in 22nd place (+1.67). His ÖSV colleagues Daniel Hemetsberger (13th/+1.41) and Daniel Danklmaier (17th/+1.46) were faster than Kriechmayr in the first run on the Birds of Prey. However, the two veterans were among a total of eleven skiers to whom the FIS world federation subsequently attributed a scoring error.
Three ÖSV tickets still open
13 ÖSV skiers tackled the training. Kriechmayr, Danklmaier, Hemetsberger, Stefan Babinsky (+2.26), Otmar Striedinger (+2.33), Stefan Rieser (+2.80) and Manuel Traninger (+2.91) are seeded for the first downhill of the season. Raphael Haaser (+2.00), Felix Hacker (+2.65), Andreas Ploier (+2.83), Stefan Eichberger (+3.38), Vincent Wieser (+3.72) and Lukas Feurstein (+5.09) are competing for three open tickets.
The ÖSV has nine starting places in the Super-G. The line-ups for the three races in Beaver Creek - the weekend will be concluded with a giant slalom - will be announced after the downhill training on Thursday, according to the federation. The second training session scheduled for Wednesday was canceled after being successfully held on Tuesday.
