Conventional wisdom had made us believe that Marcel Hirscher was unbeatable.
Well it took someone like Germany's Stefan Luitz to end the Austrian's three-year winning streak, occasionally broken by the French Team (Pinturault 8 times, Fanara and Faivre once each).
Luitz gave us a breathtaking demonstration of what can happen when a racer is determined beat Hirscher under weird and difficult racing conditions.
This is without mentioning the fact that the German racer wasn't just claiming his first World Cup podium and World cup win, but also that it happened less than one year after tearing his ACL.
What an impressive achievement!
