Weather wreaks ski race havoc

America's Daron Rahlves in action
Unseasonably warm weather is continuing to disrupt the World Cup ski race programme.

A men's giant slalom in Hinterstoder, Austria, scheduled for Monday and a women's downhill and super-G in Innsbruck on 11 and 12 January are the latest to fall foul.

The women's races have been postponed until 27 February through to 1 March after heavy rain fell for two days in the Austrian resort.

Two other men's races, a downhill and a slalom at the French resort of Chamonix on 11 and 12 January, have been switched to Bormio in Italy.

And a women's giant slalom and slalom set for Berchtesgaden in Germany this weekend are also now taking place in Bormio.

The men's giant slalom and slalom, scheduled for Kranjska Gora in Slovenia on 4 and 5 January, is still set to go ahead.
