Best possible result: Bauer and Co. take silver at the home world championship in the four-man bobsleigh.
The pusher from BRC Ohlstadt missed this goal, but he doesn't complain about the silver. Johannes Lochner's sled fell during training for the World Cup in Altenberg a good three weeks ago. Lochner was still dealing with neck pain. Not ideal conditions to be able to keep up with record world champion Francesco Friedrich. After the first two runs on Saturday, Friedrich had already gained a lead of 0.27 seconds.
