Didier Defago's victory at Bormio !

Reigning Olympic Champion Didier Defago achieved an impressive comeback at Bormio, becoming the first Swiss speed specialist to tame the treacherous ‘Stelvio’ downhill race since the golden triumph of Skiing Legend Pirmin Zurbriggen back in February 1985! The 34-year-old who suffered a painful knee injury a year ago beat by 29/100 of a second his seven-year-younger teammate Patrick Kueng while Austria’s Klaus Kroell, the fastest man in Wednesday’s final training run, was a solid 3rd at 42/100.
