Even Chrigel makes mistakes

It is still very early in the race, but Chrigel Maurer (SUI1) is currently not in the lead where he was expected to be, but in the chasing group instead. We know that Chrigel prefers to be alone up front, so what went wrong? Former athlete and race expert Tom Payne said: "Chrigel certainly made a couple of - very rare for him - mistakes today. Maxime's boldness and confidence really paid off, and Max's decision to hike up to fly down to Wagrain was brilliant - which is why everyone else copied it".
