Beaver Creek has a habit of producing a race that does not quite run to form. In 2015, the last time the race took place Marcel Hirscher won a weather controlled race from bib number 4, in 2017 Vincent Kriechmayr from bib number 3 produced a race winning performance from the front as the conditions again deteriorated.

Kriechmayr took the win ahead of the winner in Lake Louise, Kjetil Jansrud with Hannes Reichelt in third.
