Overview
- Vincent Kriechmayr won the Courchevel downhill by 0.09 seconds over Giovanni Franzoni, with Marco Odermatt third at 0.31 back.
- With a 632-point cushion over Lucas Pinheiro Braathen and only six races left, the overall title became mathematically unreachable under the 100-points-per-win system.
- Odermatt’s fifth consecutive overall crown ties Marc Girardelli for second on the all-time list, trailing Marcel Hirscher’s eight.
- The downhill globe was confirmed after teammate Franjo von Allmen skied out in soft snow, ending the last mathematical challenge.
- Kriechmayr’s victory ended a 23-race Austrian downhill drought, and the event included a near-miss when American Jared Goldberg encountered piste workers on course.
