Tormis Laine, Estonia's top skier, participated in the ski events at the Milano Cortina Winter Olympics but unfortunately did not make it to the second run round. The live broadcast of the second run on ETV2 and ERR's sports portal was scheduled to begin at 14:25, featuring commentary by Juhan Kilumets and Laur Mägi, with Debora Saarnak as the reporter.

Lucas Pinheiro Braathen, who announced his retirement from professional skiing at the end of 2023 but will compete under the Brazilian flag in Spring of the following year, was the first to ski the course and set an impressive time of 1.13,92 that none of the competitors could match. Notably, the Swiss skiing legend Marco Odermatt, holder of four small crystal globes in the World Cup series, trailed Braathen by 0.95 seconds. This highlights Braathen's skill and potential in the competition, reflecting the intense rivalry in men's skiing.

The event showcased the fierce competition among elite skiers, with Braathen's time significantly ahead of renowned competitors like Odermatt and Austria's Loic Meillard, who finished 1.57 seconds behind. As this event unfolds, it sets the stage for exciting developments in the Olympic skiing competitions, especially with athletes like Laine aiming for future improvements and the remarkable performances by skiers like Braathen capturing the spotlight on the world stage.
