Bode Miller third at Flachau GS. Thomas Grandi wins, CUCHE Didier Cuche
third, Benjamin Raich fourth, Daron Rahlves fifth Hermann Maier 28th A Good day for the Overall standings. Four Americans in top 15 (Dane Spencer 12th, Erik Schlopy 13th) 5 Norte-Americanos in top 15! Who says it's a Euro sport?

Who says it's a Euro sport? I can't find anywhere where they keep the Nations Cup standings, and I wish I could. Maier's picked up a few on Bode, though -- he's now only 319 points behind. -- Mary Malmros Some days you're the windshield, other days you're the bug.

Who says it's a Euro sport? Most people :-) That still leaves 2/3 of the top 15 as Europeans. -- Alex Heney, Global Villager Those who can, do. Those who can't, supervise!

And for those of you keeping track, Grandi did it on those no-good Rossignol skis. Hmmmm.... maybe they don't suck that much. dh

I can't find anywhere where they keep the Nations Cup standings, and I
wish I could. Maier's picked up a few on Bode, though -- he's now only 319 points behind. It took me far too long just to find the World Cup Standings: http://www.fis-ski.com/uk/discipline...standings.html Their site doesn't currently show Nations Cup (or at least not for me). Maybe they'll start adding content as the season goes on.

It took me far too long just to find the World Cup Standings: http://www.fis-ski.com/uk/discipline...standings.html Note that currently (as of this post) they haven't updated those standings to reflect latest race results. I don't know why they're behind - the last race was about 24hours ago.

Those of us in other countries tend to think of "the Austrians" as being dominant, but I'm willing to bet that people like Beni Raich are happy for things to be opening up a bit. When guys like Eberharter and Maier stay around for as long as they have/did, it does mean fewer opportunities for the rest. -- Mary Malmros Some days you're the windshield, other days you're the bug.
