#Valais2025

You can see the defending champion with the number one on there. I think that’s really is a move to get that positioning right because it’s such a critical moment. So Hongram leads them through onto the climb into the arena at the end of lap three. Well, Hongram really starting to dominate the race and really starting to look as though she’s adamant she wants to defend that world championship title she took last year at Pal Arensol. Isabella Hongen from Canada starting to open the gap behind two riders in closer. Tenders Hongen who is leading in one at the moment. the chest and look at the momentum. Absolutely fabulous move from Carla Hans from Germany. The momentum on the climb every single lap around 2 seconds faster than the preceding one. Really interesting tactics from Isabella Hongren. The race leader will be looking to make this her second win. Here she comes up onto the climb and look at the gap back. They’re still on the top and it’s still coming down the side of the buildings here. Here we go. This is going to be a moment to savor for her. It’s job done. A professional look over the shoulder, the arms of Razor Loft, the 2025 UCA mountain bike world champion coming to the line though. It’s going to be a silver medal. A second place. A hard fought but smart one silver medal. A delighted rider from Germany. Carlan goes over the line just ahead of Tyler Jacobs. Jacobs of South Africa. Some brilliant racing, some brilliant riding, and a very, very happy Hongan. This is lap nine. Here they go. Wash he comes to the front. He’s held second place. He’s not taken the race lead till now. Has he been saving something for his time? Five riders in the line now. Going Truda, Bashi, Punchard, Tunis, Van Manon, and Pedison on the slopes. This is the Swiss man wanting to take this on home. Does he want it the most? Oh, boy. He comes on the left hand side. They shouldn’t. Should he’s not going to do this. Going to force him all the way out into the They know that corner is absolutely crucial to winning this race. And this is the final lap. Big move there. Finn Trudler. He knew Washi was strong. He knew been waiting, but he didn’t let him take his chance. Washi staying with Trudler. They’ve now got a gap to the riders behind Pison trying to get this gap back down onto the climb. This sprint she carries the momentum, but look at this. There’s on the front now. Punch comes on the side here. The battle for third and fourth place is going to go down into the descent. Who’s going to risk the most here? Truda goes down. Bashi almost takes it down on the front wheel there. They’ve held it together. This is the run though for the line. Who can carry momentum round this final burn? Bosi is lining this up for this. Brood’s leading this out. Bin Doodler’s leading this out. Here comes Bashi. Can he come alongside the Swiss man here? He’s going to take it by a whisker. Surely I’m sure that is going to be Bashi from Dudler. Washi on the floor. War arrived by Adrian Bashi. You can just see the photo here.
