Really gutted for Fem, as I think her mental state is still really bad. I hope she is able to get to a place in life where she's okay, regardless of whether that includes cycling.

Supposedly she's still recovering from illness, but I have the feeling the team is protecting her. I don't want to dabble in amateur psychology but obviously there's some kind of mental block going on.

Worth noting that French women' placings put them ahead of Dutch women in the top-10, and all young-ish.

Hopefully a good sign for the near future.......a mix of nations in the Top 10 is what we want to see. I would like to see a few Swiss in there as well (but CX in Switzerland seems to be for XC rejects), and with the current young North Americans it could be a lot more interesting going forward.

It's so confusing Vas isn't the Hungarian Champion...
Is that even allowed?

Bad start for Vas. Switching bike after the start.

The Holmgrens and Rafaelle Carrier should be regular fixtures in the top 15s, but I don't know how much cross they will be racing.

Oh Tibault!

Solid start to the CX season for TN!

Oh Tibault!

Yeah, it was like the gods kept flicking him today. It was kind of amusing, even though I cheer for him, normally.

But Joris winning is always my preference.
