Swiss skiers took third, fourth, fifth and sixth as Alexis Monney (SUI/Stöckli) backed up his Downhill victory the previous day with a third-place finish on Sunday, finishing ahead of compatriots Stefan Rogentin (SUI/Fischer), Marco Odermatt (SUI/Stöckli) and Franjo Von Allmen (SUI/Head).
It was the culmination of a good return for Team Switzerland in Bormio, who had taken two podium places on Saturday on a day in which they also ended with four skiers in the top six.
“I don’t know what to say, it was a crazy weekend,” said Monney, who had never been on a podium before Saturday.
“It’s a big step. The season start was like that for me but I always made a mistake and lost a lot of time but now yesterday and today was really nice.”
‘Always on the limit’
Odermatt’s finish of fifth was still enough to hold onto top spot in the Super G standings as well as the Overall standings, but there are signs that the next generation is on the way as the two winners over the weekend are both just 24 years old.
“Incredible. I’m 33 years old, and they keep pushing all the time,” said Kriechmayr of the young skiers.
“Also the Swiss guys and some Italian guys – also from Austria we have some young guys coming up.
