Pinheiro Braathen wins Levi slalom ahead of Noel for second win in two races this season, his 10th World Cup victory
Brazil's Lucas Pinheiro Braathen won the men's World Cup slalom in Levi, Finland, on Sunday, November 15, for his second victory in as many races this season.
Starting seventh on the Levi Black course, Pinheiro Braathen led France's Clement Noel by 0.65 seconds after the first run and skied a clean second run, giving up just nine hundredths of a second to the Frenchman to win by 0.56 seconds. Switzerland's Loic Meillard was third, 0.73 seconds off the pace.
The former Norwegian racer, in his third winter competing for Brazil, now has 10 World Cup victories, five of them in slalom. He also won the season-opening giant slalom in Soelden, as GSM reported on October 25, making it two wins from two races this season.
