The Canadian James Crawford offered himself a first prestige victory in Kitzbühel, the Austrian alpine skiing temple

Marco Odermatt’s quest will last at least a year. Particularly motivated at the idea of ​​winning the most prestigious descent on the circuit for the first time, the Swiss had to be satisfied on Saturday from 6th place, the day after its super-G success. A little physically and psychologically blunt by Friday day, marked by many falls including that of Alexis Pinturault, Odi did not show his best face, on a track warmed by positive temperatures and a frank sun. “I was not perfect, I made two small faults and especially I did not take all the risks. It’s hard to win like that ”, he analyzed.
