The 32-year-old finished in one minute 50.59 seconds, just 0.05 seconds ahead of Switzerland's Juerg Gruenenfelder in Val Gardena. Austrian Johann Grugger claimed third place, 0.08secs further back. But it was disappointment for Italian favourite Kristian Ghedina, who was 12th in his 150th downhill race. BASKETBALL/VOLLEYBALL NOW ON 387 Next page General Headlines Sport
