Hall & Lawrence Win Bronze

British Bobsleigh are celebrating their first World Cup medal of the Olympic season after Brad Hall and Taylor Lawrence won 2-man bronze in St Moritz on Saturday.

Hall and Lawrence clocked a two-run time of 2 minutes 13.43 seconds at the spiritual home of sliding as their preparations for next month’s Games in Milan Cortina continue to gather pace.

Lawrence only returned to action last week after a calf injury kept him sidelined for the first four races of the season and today’s event was his first 2-man competition since he and Hall finished sixth at the World Championships in Lake Placid 10 months ago.

Having marked his 4-man comeback with a fourth-place finish in Winterberg last Sunday, Lawrence helped Hall to a first 2-man podium since Lillehammer in February 2025 as they were only bettered by the top two German teams in Switzerland.

World Cup points leader Johannes Lochner took gold ahead of compatriot and reigning Olympic Champion Francesco Friedrich in a time of 2.12.24, with South Korea’s Jinsu Kim finishing five hundredths of a second behind the Brits in fourth.

With the race doubling as the European Championships, GB are celebrating two medals in one day after matching their result from the same competition last season.

Hall and Lawrence will race again tomorrow in the penultimate 4-man event of the World Cup campaign, before the calendar concludes with race seven in Altenberg next weekend.
