French skier Sarrazin 'conscious' after training crash

French skier Cyprien Sarrazin is "conscious" after being airlifted to hospital following a nasty crash Friday during training for a World Cup downhill race in Bormio, Italy.

Text size:

The 30-year-old lost control of his skis and crashed into the protective netting before being evacuated by helicopter.

In a brief statement, the French ski federation said Sarrazin was "conscious" and would undergo tests.

Sarrazin enjoyed his best campaign on the World Cup circuit last season with four victories, but is yet to win in 2024/25 ahead of Saturday's race in Bormio.
