Slovenia’s Andrej Jerman won the Bormio downhill to claim only the second World Cup win of his career. The 31-year-old completed the bumpy 3.27 kilometre Stelvio course in two minutes 0.32 seconds, more than half a second ahead of Switzerland’s Didier Defago.

Michael Walchhofer was quickest in the opening training session for Tuesday’s downhill in Bormio. The 34 year old Austrian, who won the World Cup downhill title in 2009, was 16 hundredths quicker than Andrej Jerman and compatriot Christoph Gruber.
