1 March 2024 at 22:01 Atle Lie McGrath on the podium in Aspen Everything was in order for a very strong Norwegian day in the giant slalom race in Aspen, as Norway had three racers among the seven best after the first round. But it was Atle Lie McGrath, who was number seven halfway through the race, who was able to step up to the podium after an intense second half. The Norwegian eventually finished third after a terrific lap. Alexander Steen Olsen was the best of the Norwegians after the first half. He was then in 2nd place, only twelve hundredths behind leader Marco Odermatt. But he was unable to follow up the strong drive in the 2nd half. Steen Olsen fell back to 7th place. Henrik Kristoffersen was number eight. At the same time, there was a historic turning point in the race when Marco Odermatt won the race. This was the Swiss’s 11th victory in a row in giant slalom. He has therefore won eight out of eight giant slalom races this season. At the same time, he decided the battle for the giant slalom cup several weeks before the end of the season. – It was probably the hardest day this season, says Odermatt in the interview with the International Ski Federation after the victory. Swedish Loic Meillard was second in the race.
