Bode Miller races this weekend
Tuesday November 10, 2009 - Email this article to a friend

The maverick US skier is set to make his much-anticipated comeback in Finland on Sunday. He missed the first race of the season as he wasn't fit enough.

Miller is one of the biggest names in ski racing and he has been training hard since he announced he was rejoining the US team and planned to compete at next winter's Olympic Games.

Here on PlanetSKI we reported on his return and also saw him training in Saas-Fee in Switzerland last month.

He hasn't raced for a while as last season his cut short his season after a poor performance in the World Championships in Val d'Isere, France.

At one stage it looked like he might retire from the sport, but he is back and searching for Olympic glory that has so far alluded him.

In the last Olympics in Turin he made more headlines with his late-night partying than his skiing.

He has though been training hard and commentators expect that he will be in a position to return to form in time for next February's Olympics.

How he performs this weekend at Levi in Finland in the slalom will give us some indication of his prospects and we will bring you news of how he does here on PlanetSKI.
