UCI MTB World Cup (All forms!)

Shout out to Christopher Blevins. Clearly not on his best day but he did come from 14-15th back to 8th in the last lap to keep his hold on the overall.

Another win for SFR in the men's, and a different rider. Puck in another demonstration.. they keep mentioning Alpecin-Deceuninck, but she's on the women's Fenix-Deceuninck team (though the same management, etc)

Sammie with another fine ride, and podium place; I wonder if any road teams have been keeping tabs on her, or she's like Lecomte, and is all in on MTB.

With no Evie, or the Holmgren twins, Trek were pretty anonymous; quite a contrast with Specialized who they should be competing with.

Olympic Champion Tom Pidcock will race this weekend's MTB World Cup in Pal Arinsal, Andorra.

yep, looking forward to see how he'll do. he's basically home there also so not travelling far I guess...

With no World Cup racing since Crans-Montana last year, his ranking has dropped; so no XCC on Friday, and a lowly start position likely on Sunday.......unless one of his Road or CX rankings allows him to start from higher up. 4th or 5th row like MvdP did in Nove Mesto.

I think he should be eligible for a 4th or 5th row, he is currently ranked 18th on the road. He is not longer ranked at cross.
But hey the rules seem to be made to be confusing.
