Pinturault in pole after scorching world combined super-G

Home favourite Alexis Pinturault laid down a superb super-G run to set himself up for a second title in the men's alpine combined title in Courchevel on Tuesday.

Text size:

The five-time world medallist, who won combined gold in 2019 worlds in Are, clocked 1min 08.25sec.

Pinturault, whose family own a hotel in the French resort, was followed down the L'Eclipse piste by a trio of Austrians: defending world champion Marco Schwarz (at 0.06sec), Raphael Haaser (+0.14) and Vincent Kriechmayr (+0.58).

Loic Meillard will lead the charge for the Swiss team (+1.34) in the slalom scheduled for 1330 GMT, after world number one Marco Odermatt was disqualified after going wide on a gate.

"I've got the second run to enjoy myself," said Pinturault, who had been suffering from a cold and fever.

"The confidence is there. My last slaloms haven't been very good, perhaps that takes the pressure off me somewhat."

Norway's Aleksander Aamodt Kilde finished seventh, 1.05sec off the pace, but a hand injury sustained in Kitzbuehel means he will not compete in the slalom.
