Spring Finale: Men's Super-G

Unlike the women's World Cup, the winner of the Crystal Globe in super-G was decided before the finals. Marco Odermatt won the World Cup in this discipline for the third consecutive time. The two World Cup races scheduled to take place in Courchevel in March had to be cancelled because of the weather. As a result, before the end of the racing, the Swiss skier secured the super-G World Cup - he leads Vincent Kriechmayr by 158 points.

Another Austrian, Stefan Babinsky, is third in the super-G standings, 182 points behind Odermatt. The standings are much tighter behind them, and today will decide who takes second and third place in this discipline. Raphael Haaser is fourth (-184 points), Giovanni Franzoni fifth (-185), and Franjo von Allmen sixth (-196).

The last World Cup super-G was held in Kitzbühel, and Marco Odermatt won that race. No super-G races have been held since the Olympics.

Vincent Kriechmayr generally performs well on spring snow. Yesterday, the Austrian finished third in the downhill, while Marco Odermatt missed out on a podium place. However, he had already secured the World Cup - in the downhill, the overall standings and the super-G.

The alpine skiers are competing today on the same piste as the women, with the start also at the same elevation, and the gates have not been reset. We begin our coverage of the final super-G from Kvitfjell (Norway) - the seventh race in this discipline of the 2025/26 season.

Lukas Feurstein won last year's final super-G, but the Austrian has had an unimpressive season. Today he is struggling with the piste, reaches 112 km/h at the bottom and posts a time of 1:28.78. He is disappointed - there were clear mistakes.

14:32
Alexis Monney of Switzerland takes to the piste. He has the best time after the first section, then extends his lead over the Austrian to 37 hundredths. On the next section, Monney leads by 44 hundredths, then pulls further ahead. The Swiss skier reaches the finish 1.31 seconds ahead of Feurstein.

14:32
It will be interesting to see what veteran Italian team racer Christof Innerhofer can produce. The 41-year-old Italian enters the green at the top, 7 hundredths ahead. He loses time after the turns but is still challenging for second place. At the fourth split, he is 62 hundredths behind and finishes second, +1.30, one hundredth faster than Lukas. He lost a lot of speed before the finish.

14:35
Norwegian Fredrik Møller knows his home piste well. The season has been mixed for the Norwegian, who has crashed twice and suffered injuries. However, he still qualified for the final, mainly thanks to his strong start to the season. The Norwegian leads on the upper sections by 31 hundredths, then drops 17 hundredths. He then follows the pace for second place and finishes there, +0.43.

14:38
Mattia Casse appears at the start. The Italian leads at the top, but his speed is lower than that of his rivals. He negotiates the next section cleanly, then loses 23 hundredths in the third sector after a slight line error. Before the final drop, Casse is 27 hundredths behind, putting him provisionally second. He finishes third, +0.76, with Monney still leading. Photo: footage from the SRF Sport television channel 14:07 22.03.26
