Light snowfall is forecast in Kitzbühel and fresh snowfall of up to 10 cm of is expected“. According to FIS Chief of Race Markus Waldner, the time interval between training runs should be increased to two minutes, in order for all top racers to complete the course without interruption: „Unfortunately, two racers had to be stopped with the yellow flag today.
