Cortina d’Ampezzo (Belluno), 29 January 2023 – Marco Odermatt wins his second super-G in two days, during a memorable weekend for the Swiss champion in Cortina d’Ampezzo, where he proved unbeatable on both days of races, organised by Fondazione Cortina. Starting with bib number 1, Dominik Paris skied well enough to remain leader of the race until Odermatt (with bib number 11) knocked him off the top spot. Paris finished in second place, 0.76 seconds behind Odermatt, securing his first podium this season. Third place went to Austria’s Daniel Hemetsberger (+1.03 sec). Completing the top five, Germany’s Andreas Sander and Austria’s Vincent Kriechmayr.

«5 podiums in 5 races is a success for Italian skiing, and a success for Cortina which has proven its capacity to host alpine skiing speed competitions, in complete safety and with impeccable logistics for athletes and guests alike. This is the expression of what Italy, the Veneto Region, and Cortina are capable of transmitting to the world. The queen of the Dolomites thus declares herself ready for ever more important challenges», agrees Gianluca Lorenzi, mayor of Cortina, and Stefano Longo, President of Fondazione Cortina, at the end of today’s race on the Olympia delle Tofane. Praise also from FISI President Flavio Roda, who added «Cortina has surpassed itself and is complimented by the FIS, and by all the participating nations, for the great track but also for the great organizing committee which has risen to the challenge and is delivering excellence. Compliments also to our athletes who have secured two podiums in two days».
