Aleksander Aamodt Kilde, 27, looked to invite the home crowd in Kvitfjell to a real Norwegian party.
The Norwegian, with starting number three, took the lead in the downhill race 69 hundred parts ahead of compatriot Kjetil Jansrud.
It then took ten riders before he was dropped from the throne. Austrian Matthias Mayer, 29, took the lead by five hundredths in the first interim and then kept the distance down to Kilde all the way. Down in the goal trap the distance had grown to 14 hundredths.
Thus, the 29-year-old from Sankt Veit an der Glan, took his fifth VC victory in the downhill race of his career.
However, Source is pleased that he is bringing in additional points for the leader of the World Cup, Alexis Pinturault, in the total.
After the World Cup final in Cortina has been canceled, it is already clear that the Swiss Beat Feuz, four today, has won the downhill cup.
The competition is still going on but it should not affect the top match.
