Switzerland's Beat Feuz won the testing World Cup downhill here on Saturday, finishing ahead of Austrian Hannes Reichelt and Italy's Christof Innerhofer. The victory was Feuz's third on the World Cup circuit and follows a second place in Saturday's super-combined, the Swiss racer completing the 4.48km descent in 2min 35.31sec, 0.44sec ahead of Reichelt, with Innerhofer a further 0.05sec off the pace. "I can't believe it," Feuz said after dominating the run down the famed Lauberhorn, one of the classics on the circuit. "It's not the most difficult downhill but it's the longest run on the circuit and it's really special to win in front of the Swiss people. "The key moment was the big schuss. I took a more direct line that allowed me to avoid a passage that made you rattle around a bit. I saw that during the inspection. "It's all good. What I wanted this season was to carry on my good form from last winter." American Bode Miller, hunting a third win in Wengen to match the legendary Franz Klammer, was ahead on some of the early splits, but could only finish fifth as a crowd of 38,000 looked on.
