Werner Franz Wins at Val d'Isère

Werner Franz, off at position number two, has won the third mens downhill at Val d'Isère. It is his first World Cup win in the discipline but wasn't totally unexpected after being second in training yesterday. The conditions were said to favour the Austrian team and Bode Miller had to be content with fourth place after a small fault cost him vital time. Hermann Maier, the fastest in training, trailed in back in 26th place.
