Source publication date:
Paco Rassat won the Adelboden slalom in 1:51.22, securing his second victory of the season and third podium. The French athlete recovered from a first-run mistake and fourth place at halfway with a forceful closing leg.
Atle Lie McGrath finished second, 0.18 seconds behind, while Henrik Kristoffersen was third at 0.20 seconds. Lucas Pinheiro Braathen and Manuel Feller completed a tightly grouped top five, with Feller only 0.38 seconds off Rassat’s time.
Rassat became the first man to win two World Cup slaloms this season and replaced Timon Haugan atop the discipline standings after Haugan’s second-run exit. Kristoffersen’s result was his ninety-ninth World Cup podium, while McGrath recorded a third Adelboden runner-up finish.
