Paris wins the downhill in Bormio, sixth success on the track and absolute record
The blue in clear recovery after the rupture of the cruciate ligaments in 2020
Dominik Paris in the history of alpine skiing.
The South Tyrolean returned to success by winning the World Cup downhill on the Stelvio slope in Bormio, by far his favorite.
A historic result because it is the seventh success (6 downhill one in Super-G) on the same track for Paris, who today overtook Didier Cuche, who boasts five victories on the same track, the Kitzbuehel Streif.
A champion found after a ruptured cruciate ligament in training in 2020.
For Paris, 32, it is the twentieth career success. Thus the blue with 227 points moved to the top of the descent standings.
Behind Paris, who finished in 1.54.63, the Swiss Marco Odermatt, increasingly leader of the World Cup with 713 points, who finished in 1.54.87, and Niels Hintermann, 1.55.43.
For Italy there is also the tenth place of Matteo Marsaglia.
