ERFURT – Lau.

The two-woman Olympic bobsleigh champion from Beijing prevailed in St Moritz by 0.40 seconds, edging out Olympic monobob champion Kaillie Humphries of the US. Germany’s Lisa Buckwitz finished third.

Humphries won the world title in 2021 in Germany when Nolte was third.

There are only season best times instead of records on the natural ice track because it is rebuilt every year in November with 7,000 cubic metres of snow.
