Alpine Skiing: Storylines from the Start of the World Cup Season

From Austria to North America by way of Finland, the first three race weekends of the Alpine skiing World Cup season have provided plenty to talk about.


There has been mixed form for the sport's big names, interspersed with some thrilling and heartwarming surprise (or at least unexpected) performances, too. As has become tradition, there was also the task of naming a couple of newly adopted reindeer for two successful skiers.


December and the official arrival of winter heralds the transition from the intermittent schedule to consecutive weeks of skiing just about all the way through to March.


As we enter that entertainingly relentless section of the calendar, it is a good time to look back on what has gone on so far.


Whether you are looking to relive some great racing so far or wanting to get caught up, read on for the main storylines from the early weeks of the 2014-15 season.
