Nina Hoffmann (Santa Cruz Syndicate) ended world champion Valentina Höll's winning streak with a stunning and convincing victory in the fourth round of the World Cup in downhill UCI mountain biking in Pal-Arinsal, Andorra.

Höll (Rockshox Trek Race Team) was aiming for four consecutive victories, but could not beat today's Hoffmann. Britain's Tahnee Seagrave (Canyon CLLCTV FMD) also enjoyed a strong return to form as she finished in third place.

Camille Balanche of Switzerland (Dorval AM Commencal) went into the weekend as the leader of the circuit, but a crash in qualifying ruled her out of the final. Höll now leads the overall standings ahead of Balanche.

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').
