A special double win for the Italians, allowing Fill to pull off this feat and to receive a second round of applause. For the second year in a row, Italian Fill has won the downhill World Cup after coming in second place (with a time of 1.33.15) in the final test of Aspen, which was dominated by the other Italian champion, Dominik Paris (1.33.07), who revelled in the joy of the day's victory.

Fill (photo: ANSA) won the distance race with Jansrud, who was top of the partial ranking until today’s heated race: the Norwegian, who finished in 11th place (1.33.61), lost his place at the top of speciality cup, squandering a 33-point lead. The Italian resumed his place as king of downhill with 454 points against Jansrud’s 431.
