Sara Cortinovis, in her 2nd year among the U23s, has already put many more experienced colleagues behind her, starting with Sofie Pedersen, in her last year in the U23 category and separated by almost 2 minutes. Also in the race was Letizia Marzari (Massi) who finished in 8th place.

The U23s also ran in the morning with the victory of the Canadian Carter Woods.

ppgad@pucrs.br I am passionate about everything that has 2 wheels: in my youth I practiced competitive cycling on the road and on the track with good results. At the age of 18 I moved to cross country competing at national/international level as U23. Once I passed Elite, I made the choice to take things easier from the training point of view, and that's how my love for gravity disciplines was born, training as an FCI MTB instructor and guide. Now I have made my passion my profession by managing 3 MTB centers on the island of Elba (Elba MTB), creating the FANTAmtb and telling in an ironic but professional way, everything that revolves around MTB thanks to 365mountainbike and 365TV (YouTube 'PULITI dentro BIKER fuori').
