It’s the final week of the Alpine World Championships, and there are plenty of British racers in action available to view in an exciting time for British skiing.
Team GB are not set to submit a team for tomorrow’s team event, with the competitors in action later in the week.
Alex Tilley is back on snow after suffering an injury, but it’s still uncertain whether she will compete this week, the Giant-Slalom and Slalom specialist hasn’t raced so far in 2023.
All events are available to watch on BBC Red Button, iPlayer and Eurosport.
This week’s first set of Britons will kick off at the Men’s Parallel Race on Wednesday at 11am (GMT), the event will see Charlie Raposo and Calum Langmuir compete, Langmuir will be looking to build on a 38th position in the Super G event, after the 20-year-old's World Championship debut last week.
On Thursday at 9am in the Women’s Giant Slalom, Victoria Palla will take to the piste, the second run starts at 12:30pm, the 22-year-old made her World Cup debut earlier this year in the slalom event in Flachau, Austria.
The pair of Charlie Raposo and Calum Langmuir will return once again on Friday for the Men’s Giant Slalom at 9am.
The Women’s Slalom will take place on Saturday morning, Charlie Guest will be back in action after suffering a dislocated collarbone, the star from Perth, Scotland, has made a fast five-week recovery to get back on skis in time for the games in the French Alps, she was originally told she would be out for three months.
Guest will be joined by Reece Bell and Victoria Palla, the race gets underway at 9am and the second run starts at 12:30pm.
Which takes us to Sunday and the final race of the Championships, the Men’s Slalom, which is on paper, Great Britain’s best shot at a medal.
21-year-old Ed Guigonnet will join the established British slalom trio of Laurie Taylor, Billy Major and of course, Dave Ryding.
In what could well be Ryding’s final World Championship race, we can only expect him to put it all on the line, after a second-place finish in Kitzbuhel this year, it’s clear he has still got fire in the belly.
Taylor and Major have both had fantastic seasons in the World Cup Slalom series, with multiple World Cup point scores between them.
The first run kicks off at 9am and the second run will be at 12:30pm, and you can watch the Ski Sunday round-up on BBC Two at 18:15.
