Quote: 14:00 We are, at last, ready to get going and it's with jessica Walter.
14:10 Lisa Bremseth completely misses her run with a big error halfway up. Her skis just sliding too far away from her to recover, but she finishes the run anyway clocking a low time that won't be in contention.
14:08 Finland's Henna Raita grabs second place with a good solid run 0.08 seconds off the pace.
14:07 Tina Maze of Slovenia played it safe with a solid run but she couldn't pierce Vidal's time and was 1.54 seconds back in fifth place.
14:05 Lauren Ross lost a second on the higher section and it got worse for the American as she crossed the line 1.51 seconds off the pace.
14:04 French skier Vanessa Vidal has a quick top section to keep her calm at the end to clock a time of just over 2.02mins
14:03 Andrea Fischbacher of Austria negotiates the bottom section well and takes the lead ahead of Walter.
14:01 Walter will get the advantage of going first after the stewards have groomed the pist...she crosses the line in a total combined time of 2 minutes 04 seconds.

14:20 Disappointment for the Italians as Manuela Moelgg skis off the course missing a gate.
14:19 Anna Ottosson of Sweden has a fairly quick top section and bottom equally and just misses out of first place.
14:17 It seems to be an American run so far as Lindsey Kildow has just beaten her compatriot's time to sit in first position and clocks a combined time of 2:02.83
14:16 American Julia Mancuso has an almost perfect run to knock Vidal off the top spot by 0.01 seconds
14:14 Resi Stiegler of the USA gets caught up on a gate at the mid-section and stumbles, she doesn't clock a time and is out of contention

14:24 We're now up to the best 15 skiers of the first leg. We start off with Trine Bakke but she's off the pace on her second run and doesn't get into the top three.

14:30 Nika Fleiss attacks the last few gates but it's not enough and is over a second behind.
14:30 Ana Jelusic of Croatia is off the pace by 0.87 seconds.
14:29 Martina Ertl of Germany attacks the course, almost too much, but a great correction on the bottom section gives her first place, but images show that halfway up she straddles a gate - one leg either side - which will no doubt cost her her number one place.

14:38 Tanja Poutiainen gets us off into the last 6 skiers with style as she agressively skis the run and ends up in first place 0.60 ahead of the Ertl
14:37 Monica Bergmann looks disappointed with her second run, she can only obtain 8th place.

14:40 First place isn't staying still with these last few girls as American Kristina Koznick is now the new number one with four skiers to come down the course.

14:42 Olympic champion Janica Kostelic takes to the run now...she's the quickest on the top half and equally as quick down the bottom section as she just beats Koznick's time by 0.16 seconds. Kostelic is first with three to go

14:43 Kathrin Zettel beats Kostelic's time at the top section...she skis a great bottom half but it's not good enough to get her on top of the podium..she lies in third place.

14:45 Nicole Hosp of Austria is even quicker on the top section..a few scary moments close to the gates but she overcomes them well and excellently finishes the run to grab first place.
