As expected we had a great party in the village last night. Absolutely incredible atmosphere. 

Today we have the slalom. The course for this race is really tough, and out of 62 starters only 27 successfully completed the necessary 2 runs. Regrettably Dave Ryding was not among them. The winner was the Austrian hero and pre-race favourite Marcel Hirscher. Pauli was delighted. Here they are together. 

After the race, 12,500 spectators have to get home. The vast majority of them don’t live here of course, so there’s a long queue for the train. Pauli and Neil have their press passes so they can jump the queue and head off back to Austria. We’ll be seeing them again next week.
