Tanguy Nef narrowly misses out on his first podium place again at the World Cup slalom in Gurgl. The man from Geneva came 5th in the race won by Frenchman Paco Rassat.
Nef, who was in 2nd place after the first run, was 56 hundredths off the podium. Behind first-time winner Rassat, Belgium's Armand Marchant and Norway's Atle Lie McGrath took 2nd and 3rd place.
Alongside Nef, Daniel Yule was the only Swiss to finish in the points in eleventh place. World champion Loïc Meillard was eliminated after a 20th place in the first run due to a single thread.
