British skeleton racer Matt Weston won his second European title as compatriot Tabby Stoecker claimed a silver medal in St Moritz.<\/b><\/p>\n
Weston came away with a combined two-run time of two minutes 16.58 seconds to beat Italy’s Amedeo Bagnis by 0.91secs.<\/p>\n
It followed Weston’s victory over Bagnis at the same track at the World Championships in 2023, and followed his World Cup win there on Wednesday.<\/a><\/p>\n The result makes Weston a multiple European champion, joining Kristan Bromley (2004, 2005, 2008 and 2009) and Shelley Rudman (2009 and 2011) as the only Britons to win the title more than once.<\/p>\n It is the third time in four years the men’s European title has been won by a British athlete, after Marcus Wyatt claimed gold in 2024 following Weston’s first triumph.<\/p>\n Earlier on Friday, Stoecker secured European Championship silver in the women’s race becoming the sixth British woman to win a continental medal since the event began in 2003.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
