Craig Branch has crashed out of the Bormio downhill, the 31-year-old Perisher Blue racer going down after the second intermediate point of the 3.2km Stelvio course. “I crashed about a third of the way into the course,” Branch said. “Things were going pretty well, a lot better than the training run, but I hit a bump and all of a sudden both legs were above my head and then I was on my side. I almost recovered but ended up crashing out of the course.”
