Marco Odermatt won his twelfth victory of the season in the World Cup, on the occasion of the Super-G finals in Soldeu. The Swiss dominated Marco Schwarz and Aleksander Aamodt Kilde.
Already guaranteed to win the big crystal globe, but also the small giant and Super-G globe, Marco Odermatt wants to end his World Cup season in style. And the Swiss won his twelfth success of the season, on the occasion of the Super-G of the Soldeu finals. In Andorra, under the sun and a temperature of 10°c, the now double winner of the big globe was 29 hundredths ahead of the Austrian Marco Schwarz and of 71 the Norwegian Aleksander Aamodt Kilde and climbs once again on the top step of the podium. It is now six victories in Super-G and six in giant during this financial year 2022-23… while waiting for the giant on Saturday. In the end, Odermatt won the first small Super-G globe of his career with 228 points ahead of Kilde and 405 over Vincent Kriechmayr (who retired on Thursday). The Swiss is now 58 points off Hermann Maier’s record for a World Cup season. If he gets on the podium on Saturday, he will break that record. A formality for the current king of world skiing?
Pinturault eleventh
Two French people were qualified for this Super-G of the finals of Soldeu as members of the Top 25 of the discipline. But they finished outside the Top 10. Alexis Pinturault finished 11th at 1″18 from Odermatt and Nils Allègre 15th at 1″56. On Friday, the parallel team event will be on the program, before the technical events this weekend.
