Hirscher just put in a fantastic 2nd run. Almost 2 secs ahead of the field at this point making it difficult for Ryding to win.

Wahey - well done Dave, was worried he might go win or bust. No shame in dropping top slot to Hirscher.

Cue Stanton to come on and say he only got second because the Dutch prefer canal skating.

@letsgetpiste, of course it was onions. I don't get emotional watching a Brit come second!!
Can't remember how long ago it was that I skied on the Long Myndd...2.00m blizzards...grew up in Salop, family still live there.

@Dave of the Marmottes, but malheureusement for Alain, he was forced to step off the podium at a later date due to a dodgy American nasal decongestant.
Very sad...slightly off subject...does anyone think that's why Brad had his medication sent from GB rather than buy the local stuff just down the road?

Awesome result well done to him, and what a place to do it too! Great to watch live on Eurosport.....snooker even put on the back burner for 20 mins!🙄

@lambert, yes I I still think P&G owe him big time given they are big Olympic sponsors but yes my original point was pedantry and shouldn't distract from Dave's stellar season. World Champs to come of course.

... ok my bad, 36 years since a Brit officially earned a place on the podium without the result being over turned.

He must have done well it even made the home page of the BBC Sport website

Fantastic. Hell of a second run from Hirscher so no shame in losing out to that! Was watching on TV in the restaurant up on Rendl in St Anton, felt very much like I did watching a football match in with the home fans when supporting the away team. Appreciative round of applause from the crowd when Ryding crossed the line

Fantastic! Only caught the second run live but delighted to have seen both this today and AB's 2002 Olympic race as they happened.
Hirscher's second run charge was incredible too.

@balernoStu, Hirschers run was something to see. That guy just goes to another level at times. Roll on Schladming on Tuesday night.

Impressive alright, well done getting on the podium in what has been a good season for him with more possible now he knows he can do it.

amazing result! still feels surreal and almost like it didn't happen. Bartelskis 2nd in 81 got me into skiing I think, I remember shouting lots at the TV! I'm sure this result will inspire many new and existing skiers.

This makes the Schladming night race a must watch (bbc red button 17.30 and 19.30). Dave Ryding has been drawn to go number one in the first run (16.45 24th jan)
