""I didn't quite see the terrain, and I lost my balance," Vonn said in a post-race interview with FIS. "It cost me probably half a second or more... but I'm just happy that I hung on to the podium and the red bib.""
""I nailed the line perfectly during the race," Hütter said afterward to FIS. "I fought all the way down to hold my line.""
Conny Hütter won the women's Downhill at Val d'Isère with a time of 1:41.54, edging the field by 0.26 seconds. Kira Weidle-Winkelmann set an early benchmark from bib 1 with 1:41.80 after a fastest training run. Sofia Goggia's fastest training time had been 1:41.77. Lindsey Vonn started bib 8, made multiple fast splits but lost time through a lower mid-section line error and finished 0.09 seconds behind Weidle-Winkelmann. Hütter delivered a smooth, controlled run and Vonn remains the Downhill standings leader for the 2025–26 season.
