It’s Lauberhorn Saturday, which is Switzerland’s equivalent of the FA Cup final in England. Wengen is packed, but once the spectators begin to make their way out to the course we pop up to the village. Today’s air show begins.

We enjoyed watching the show, which always ends with 2 planes making a heart over the valley.

The big race was won by an Austrian, which never goes down well here. We were happy to watch it on TV – you don’t actually see much out on the course – just a colourful figure flashing past once every couple of minutes.
All the racers got down safely, and the pilot of the rescue helicopter was not required. He did get this lovely picture though.

Slalom tomorrow, featuring Great Britain’s Dave Ryding.
