The Austrian came home in 1:11.90 minutes to lead an all-Austrian podium, with Romed Baumann and Matthias Mayer second and third respectively.

But there was no doubting who the star of the show was with Reichelt becoming the 12th Austrian male to reach double figures of World Cup wins as he secured his tenth victory.

The victory also sees Reichelt close the gap on Norwegian Kjetil Jansrud in the downhill World Cup standings.
