Loïc Meillard was one of the first to congratulate him. The technician will start the ski winter with the slalom on Sunday. That’s because he withdrew from the giant slalom in Sölden due to injury.
Caviezel, whose brother Gino is still active in the World Cup, had a serious fall in Lake Louise two years ago in November and suffered a traumatic brain injury. Mauro Caviezel had returned from several injuries before, but not this time.
He announced his resignation on the occasion of the Lauberhorn races in January 2023. He was one of the best speed riders in his career, but was only able to achieve one World Cup victory with the Super-G in Val d’Isère in 2020. Nevertheless, he won the small crystal ball in Super-G in 2019/20.
