What a weekend in Loudenvielle. Under sunny skies and a fast, dusty track Gracey Hemstreet stole the spotlight with a stellar run that earned her the top step of the podium and her maiden elite World Cup win.

The Canadian laid down a heater at the bottom of the course that left the rest of the field chasing. Amaury Pierron powered into an impressive second place finish in the Men’s Elite. His performance capped off a solid weekend for the Commencal Muc-Off team, who looked fast throughout and took out team of the weekend. Over in the Enduro, La Pierre Gravity Collective faced the heat with determination, Lisandru Bertini grabbed 17th overall and clocked a top 5 stage time, while Louis Jeandel battled through setup challenges, looking ahead to redemption in Leogang.
