On the women’s side, American Lindsey Vonn has clinched the Downhill title, but is looking to extend her lead in the Overall points standings. Vonn currently leads German Maria Riesch by 157 points with four races remaining.

                             

Didier Cuche has a sizeable lead in the Super-G points standings. Cuche currently leads German Christoph Gruber by 89 points.

 

Maria Riesch leads a close race in the women’s Super-G standings. Riesch currently holds a 53 point lead over Austrian Elisabeth Goergl.

 

This promises to be a hugely exciting finale to the speed skiing season.
