Jansrud crashed out on the first leg of the giant slalom in pursuit of a weekend hat-trick of victories. Alexis Pinturault completed the podium, with fellow home competitors Thomas Fanara and Victor Muffat Jeandet in fourth and fifth. France's Pinturault, who edged Hirscher in the opening giant slalom of the season in Soelden, is tied with him at the top of the discipline standings. But the glory this time belonged to his compatriot Faivre, who said that off season training with his colleagues, who have the nickname the "attacking croissants", had boosted his confidence. "It was a wonderful day, this is very special," he said.
