BORMIO, Italy - Didier Cuche clinched his second straight World Cup downhill title Tuesday, beating out Bode Miller by five points when the final race of the season was canceled.

The final men's downhill was scheduled for Wednesday, but was canceled after organizers could not get training off on Tuesday following overnight snow and foggy conditions on the Stelvio course.

World Cup rules require at least one training session before a downhill. Women's training was also canceled Tuesday, but the women's race will go ahead Wednesday because they were able to train Monday.

Cuche's only downhill victory this season came in the prestigious Kitzbuehel race in January. He also finished second four times and third once.

Miller won three downhills but struggles at the beginning of the season probably cost him the title.

One of Miller's downhill wins came here in December, and he also swept the speed events on the Stelvio course at the 2005 World Championships. Cuche has never won a race in Bormio.

With Miller expected to do well in the downhill, it was tough to judge what affect the cancellation had on the overall race, where Miller holds a 169-point margin ahead of Cuche, with Benjamin Raich of Austria 264 points behind.

Now only three races remain — a super-G Thursday, giant slalom Friday and a slalom Saturday.
