Germany
Weather misfortune forced the Germans to split their different National Championship races. In the end, the ladies’ GS and men’s SL could take place as scheduled in Bertesgaden/Bischofswiesen and saw Susanne Weinbuchner and Linus Strasser take the national titles. The two cancelled tech races where rescheduled in Kitzbuehel/Pass Thurn and Christina Geiger (ladies’ SL) and Linus Strasser (men’s GS) took the win. The speed disciplines also had to be rescheduled and took place in Saalbach-Hinterglemm. Viktoria Rebensburg and Josef Ferstl won the super-g, while Lena Duerr and Linus Strasser won the alpine combined. The downhill had to be cancelled both on the ladies’ and men’s side.
