On a track that seemed to have the thumbs up from every pro racer here this weekend, the DH World Cup finals in Vallnord, Andorra delivered up a modern classic. A slight rain drizzle punctuated the afternoon’s racing, but the course rode perfectly and didn’t dampen the spirits of the watching crowd or the riders.
Myriam Nicole had more than just the pressure of the race on her shoulders when she left the start hut. With the global headquarters of her bike sponsor, Commencal, just yards from the finish line and with family and friends in the crowd, this was an important race for the French rider and she delivered with the best time of the day.
Another season of mass start races has started and as usual it did not disappointed!
This year was particularly crazy as the riders had no visibility during full speed on the Les 2 Alpes Glacier!
Get onboard the helmet cam of Fabien Cousinié who had an insane race with a big crash on the snow and a big coming back to the fourth place!
What an insane conclusion to the EWS in Millau! Once again the wet weather was a factor but with the top 5 dominated by the host nation, you wonder if the result would have been much different. Enjoy the full highlights of the 5th stop on the Enduro World Series for 2017.
