Youngest winner and another notes[edit]

I would like to inform (cit. German Wikipedia) that Christa Zechmeister became the youngest winner in women's races (winning the Slalom at Val d'Isère on Deczember 7th, 1973 (being only 16 years and 3 days old). - Another youngest winner was Herbert Plank: He is the youngest one in a men's downhill race (winning the downhill at Val d'Isère on December 10th, 1973).

Piero Gros did break Overall Winnings of his team-mate Gustavo Thöni; my constructed theory says: Gros could gain 835 points, Thöni 660 points, therefore he would be placed 3rd, because Hansi Hinterseer would have gained 716 points. In regard to the female decision, there was a "Salzburgian duel" again with winner Annemarie Moser-Pröll (848 points) ahead Monika Kaserer (553 points).    213.225.13.201 (talk) 11:11, 3 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

New scheme in awarding points[edit]

I would like to cit. the German Wikipedia (but I know it by myself too):

Another regulation in awarding points did say (only in the season 1973/74): If there are held two runs at the same place (like downhill and slalom race in Kitzbühel or Bad Gastein - and a racer is able to achieve the Top Ten there are gained points did count double. It was very heavy to achieve because (in general) best downhill racers are no good slalom racers, just the opposite are best slalom racers. There was a small number of racers who was able to achieve (and often they only could achieve a place in the behind of the Top Ten as well in the downhill as slalom, therefore no gaining many points). It is to point out that the surplused points did only count for the Overall World Cup but not for that for a discipline. 213.225.13.201 (talk) 17:11, 3 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
