2025 Alpine Skiing World Cup – Men's downhill

The men's downhill in the 2025 FIS Alpine Skiing World Cup is scheduled to consist of nine events, including the finals. Two-time discipline champion Aleksander Aamodt Kilde of Norway, who failed to win last season because he suffered life-threatening injuries on the Lauberhorn downhill course in January 2024, developed a shoulder infection at the surgical site over the summer and needed a second surgery, which is expected to cause him to miss the entire season, making defending discipline champion Marco Odermatt of Switzerland an overwhelming favorite to earn the season championship.^[1]

The season will be interrupted for the Alpine Skiing World Championships, this time in Saalbach, Austria during 4–16 February 2025.^[2] The championship in men's downhill is scheduled for Sunday, 9 February.

Downhill season began in early December 2024 at Beaver Creek (Colorado), USA with Swiss skier Justin Murisier winning his first-ever World Cup race in an upset over his Swiss teammate Marco Odermatt.^[3] However, Odermatt bounced back to dominate the next downhill in Val Gardena.^[4] In the third downhill, on the Stelvio course in Bormio, Odermatt made a mid race error that pushed him down to fifth, but two of his Swiss teammates (Alexis Monney and Franjo von Allmen) made up for it by taking the top two places, which gave the Swiss the top four places in the discipline standings for the season.^[5]

The World Cup finals in the discipline are scheduled to take place on Saturday, 22 March 2025 in Sun Valley, Idaho, United States.^[6] Only the top 25 skiers in the World Cup slalom discipline and the winner of the Junior World Championship in the discipline, plus any skiers who have scored at least 500 points in the World Cup overall classification for the season, are eligible to compete in the final, and only the top 15 earn World Cup points.
