Click on the video player above to watch the FIS World Cup women's downhill race in Cortina d'Ampezzo, Italy live on Saturday at 4 a.m. ET.

American superstar Lindsey Vonn looks to defend her downhill title at Cortina, but standing in her way will be Canada's Larisa Yurkiw.

The Owen Sound, Ont. native took World Cup downhill silver earlier this month in Austria — second only to Vonn — and before that won bronze in France. Now Yurkiw looks to make it three straight podium finishes.
