Alpine skiing at the 2026 Winter Olympics – Men's downhill

The men's downhill competition of the 2026 Winter Olympics was held on Saturday, 7 February, at Stelvio Ski Centre in Bormio, and was the first medal event of these Olympics. Franjo von Allmen of Switzerland won the event, Italian Giovanni Franzoni won the silver medal, and teammate Dominik Paris took bronze. All three were first-time Olympic medalists.

Background
All three medalists of 2022 had retired from international competition: champion Beat Feuz, runner-up Johan Clarey, and bronze medalist Matthias Mayer. Prior to the Olympics on the World Cup circuit, Marco Odermatt led in the overall and downhill standings, having won three of the six downhills. Franjo von Allmen was the reigning world champion. The Stelvio course is a regular stop on the World Cup circuit, with men's speed events usually held in late December. ==Qualification==
Results
The race started at 11:30 local time (UTC+1) under partly cloudy skies. The air temperature was at the starting gate and at the finish area; the snow condition was hard. ==References==
