Svindal claims Bormio downhill
Print Edition
Aksel Lund Svindal just keeps on winning.
Svindal mastered the fresh snow conditions on the Stelvio course in Bormio, Italy, for his fourth victory of the Olympic season, with just 40 days to go before the Sochi Games. The Norwegian clocked 1 minute, 54.08 seconds to finish 0.39 seconds ahead of Hannes Reichelt of Austria. Erik Guay of Canada placed third, 0.51 back, for a strong follow-up to his downhill victory in Val Gardena a week ago. Svindal trailed Guay at every checkpoint but then gained 0.65 seconds over the last few gates, where Guay made a slight but costly error, lifting up his left ski to regain his balance after cutting off a turn too sharply.
