Neil Simpson has claimed Great Britain’s first gold medal of the 2022 Winter Paralympics in the men’s super-G vision impaired class alongside his guide and brother Andrew Simpson.
The pair clocked 1:08.91 minutes to finish 0.4s clear of the rest of the field, topping the podium at their first ever Paralympic Games. The 19-year-old is also the first British male athlete to win a Winter Paralympic gold, following successes for Kelly Gallagher in 2014 and Menna Fitzpatrick in 2018.
