Italy’s Nicol Delago won a foggy women’s World Cup downhill on home snow in Tarvisio on Saturday as age-defying US Alpine ski great Lindsey Vonn powered to her fifth podium in five races. Germany’s Kira Weidle-Winkelmann was sixth out of the start hut and took second place, 0.20 slower than Delago. Vonn, racing to third from 11th, was a further 0.06 behind on a Di Prampero piste shrouded in thick fog on the middle section and hosting a World Cup race for the first time in 15 years. Delago’s younger sister Nadia, downhill bronze medallist at the 2022 Olympics, finished 10th with the pair embracing at the finish. Vonn won a World Cup super-G in Tarvisio in 2011 but said she could not recall much about the mountain.
