The women competed on the steep course after a storm blew up, making for difficult conditions as the course was dry and dusty before. Puck Pieterse proved no match for the power of Pauline Ferrand-Prevot (Ineos Grenadiers), who fought her way to the front of the pack to take her first win of the season. Puck Pieterse (Alpecin-Deceuninck) crossed the line in second place, with Evie Richards (Trek Factory Racing XC) completing the podium in third place.
Then space for the Elite Men with Jordan Sarrou (Team BMC) to win and Luca Schwarzbauer (Canyon CCLTV) just two seconds behind. Martin Blums (KMC MTB Racing Team) took third place.
The XCC U23 riders enjoyed dry conditions on Thursday while today the elites had to contend with a totally different course.
ITALIAN
