From Igls, Austria<\/strong><\/p>\n

Beat Hefti’s next two-man race will be in St. Moritz in his home nation of Switzerland. \u00a0What better way to get some momentum than to take a win in the previous race. \u00a0After one heat, eat least, Hefti is in position to do so. \u00a0Hefti’s lead is .03 over Thomas Florschuetz and .06 over Francisco Friedrich, both of Germany. \u00a0Oskars Melbardis of Latvia and Canadian Lyndon Rush round out the top 5. \u00a0Alexander Zubkov is sixth.<\/p>\n

The Americans are debuting a new USA-1 sled designed by BMW USA. \u00a0The sled was quick for Steven Holcomb, but a hard tap on the wall on the load left Holcomb back in 15th after Heat 1. \u00a0Cory Butner, in turn, leads the way for the Americans in 7th, with Nick Cunningham tied for 9th with Canadian Chris Spring. \u00a0Justin Kripps is 11th in the third Canadian entry.<\/p>\n

A very tough load for John Jackson in the GBR-1 sled leaves the veteran on the outside looking in for the second heat, and is joined by Lamin Deen, who just misses the second heat as well.<\/p>\n
