For Tomas Slavik, the most successful rider of all time in four-cross, an unexpected elimination in the semifinals arrived. For him, fifth place and the victory in the small final as a consolation prize. Austria once again on the top step of the podium in the women's race thanks to the victory of Lena Bauer, winner ahead of the American Abigail Hogie and British Katherine Byng.
Also on the stage for the final awards ceremony was Anna Slankova, the Czech athlete who in 2022 was the victim of a serious accident in the 4X race in Val di Sole, losing the use of her legs. Anna returned to the place where her life changed in one night: her smile on stage is the last slide of a Friday to remember.
