The race has been rescheduled for Sunday and is the penultimate event before the final super-G race in Norway in two weeks time.

Marco Odermatt leads the standings with 425 points Austria's Vincent Kriechmayer is second at 58pts with a tight pack close behind him including Franjo Von Allmen, who won three gold medals at the Milan-Cortina Olympics.

The 28-year-old Odermatt won two Olympic silvers and bronze in Bormio last month missing out on the golds, but won the overall World Cup title for a fifth consecutive time on Friday.
