As the organizers feared, the second Super G of Bormio is finally canceled. The rain, which fell until 11 p.m. on Wednesday, damaged the Stelvio considerably, especially the bottom of the track after the San Pietro jump. The FIS (International Ski Federation) decided to salt after the precipitation and the organization left until 10:30 am Thursday to make a decision, before finally giving in to the obvious.
“Due to the high temperatures, and for safety reasons, the jury and the organizers have decided to cancel today’s super-G“, wrote the FIS in a message to the media. Bormio had already included in his program a super-G canceled at the end of November in Lake Louise (Canada) because of bad weather conditions.
