MTB News: According to the forecast, the weather is supposed to be bombastic on Sunday – but there is still a very good reason to spend the afternoon at home. From 13.30 p.m. the races of the UCI Downhill Mountain Bike World Cup in Fort William will be streamed live. The 17th edition of the classic already promises to be another highlight of the year.
The UCI Downhill Mountain Bike World Cup is coming to Fort William for the 17th time this weekend. A classic that fans of downhill skiing should not miss. The extremely demanding route once again awaits the world's best downhill racers, who will once again deliver thrilling fights for victory and valuable World Cup points. As is well known, the Scottish Fort William is always good for a surprise. The races will be as unpredictable as the Scottish weather. Of course, after their victories in Maribor, eyes are on Tahnée Seagrave and Loic Bruni. Can the British and French repeat their success? The two Maribor winners are under a lot of pressure from their own compatriots, among others. Tahnée Seagrave will face Rachel Atherton, Loic Bruni will face reigning World Cup Champion Amaury Pierron - and they're not the only riders aiming for victory at Fort William. The German fans can also hope: will Nina Hoffmann make it onto the podium?
