Britain's two-man bobsleigh team of Lee Johnston and Dan Humphries finished 15th in a blizzard at Cesana Pariol.
The bad weather, which caused the postponement of the women's super g, made driving conditions extremely difficult.
Johnston insisted: "I've been doing this for 11 years and this is the worst weather ever.
"But it's a winter sport and this is winter weather. Driving isn't easy when you have got snow on your visor."
