Definitely. Has a chance to improve on that in the second run too.

It will be the womens bobsleigh race by the time the 50th racer comes down the track. |
Even Eurosport had to give up at bib 61.
Edit: Oh no , had to switch Eurosport channel to get the later bibs, an Iranian on course now.

12.30 Uk time -- I believe it is reverse order for the top 30

Think it’s 12.30 (Eurosport coverage starts at 12.20), and yes, top 30 (I think) go in reverse order.

Keeping fingers crossed for a Robinson top 5 and a Tilley top 15. Think it’s going to be a straight shoot out for Shiffrin and Lara GB for top spot.

Great top section again by Tilley, but faded at the end. It’s a long course this one.

Hell of a run by Robinson. Wonder if that’s good enough for a podium?

4th not too shabby for a 19 year old. Still bet she’s gutted though!

We're going to have massive withdrawal symptoms next week after all the great skiing that we have had the joy of watching this past week!

Yes but the gap to 3rd was wide enough not to feel to hard done by. Plenty of years in het to have more chances.
I know the skiers outside the top 30 from the first run aren't going to trouble the leader board, but it seems a bit rough to have the ceremony and hand out the medals before everyone finishes.

@ster, it’s only the top 30 that qualify though. Presumably this is just to work out final standings?

Some good news for British skiers. Billy Major wins Europa Cup slalom in Meiringen Hasliberg this morning and now leads the cup slalom standings.

@Timmycb5, true. I guess they are skiing for FIS points only. But still seems a bit discourteous.

@DB, I never thought of ski racing as having the equivalent following as those "ultras" supporter clubs you get in Europe!
The parallel drama continues

@ster, 17th World Ski Championship for him!
Action is underway - 100 racers today on the first run - can only imagine the size of the ruts by the end of this!

The race becomes the Mens Bobsleigh Championships after the first 50 skiers have raced.

I don't know what Pinturault ate for breakfast but I definitely want some of that stuff!
He is skiing at perfection this season - this morning and back in Adelboden he was just arcing each turn perfectly - really reminds me of Ligety

@DB,
He suffered from the comentators curse. The BBC comentator said he was skiing well and then he "feller" down.

@welshflyer, he doesn't need the commentators curse. He's been more consistent and calm this season but his underlying style is full gas

At least there are a few close enough to the top that this afternoon won’t be a simple procession as the first few runs were indicating it could be.

Not a bad run from 100, stayed nice and high all the way down and finished 61st (rather helped by the numerous DNFs but missed the qualifying time though)
