A really snazzy piece, even more remarkable given that the Hahnenkamm isn't even on US television, and ski racing is rated about 50th in public interest amongst Americans.

After watching the interactive description, check out the "Stage by Stage" feature. Although remarkably accurate, it contains one minor error only a timing geek would notice...the virtual racer completes the course in 1:25, yet the course record for the Hahnenkamm DH is just a smidge under two minutes.
