The Swiss resort of LENZERHEIDE is hosting this weekend’s 2023 Downhill World Cup opener, and the MS Mondraker team will be there giving it their all on their Summum prototypes.
Brook Macdonald, Tuhoto Ariki, David Trummer, Toby Meek and Kilian Schnoeller will be sending it down the 2.5km track, affectionately called ‘The Straightline’, all of them aiming to get the season off to the best start possible. Disappointingly for everyone, Eleonora Farina will be watching from the side-lines with a broken collar bone.
This weekend Lenzerheide is opening the first of the 8 races which will make up the 2023 World Cup DH season. Starting in Lenzerheide, the series will then be moving on to Leogang, Val di Sole, Vallnord, Loudenvielle, Les Gets, Snowshoe, with Mont-Sainte-Anne wrapping things up in October.
What better way to kick off the DH season than to combine it with the second round of the 2023 XC World Cup, including both XCC and XCO disciplines? Looking to improve on their results in Nové Město, the PRIMAFLOR-MONDRAKER-GENUINS team will be pushing hard, with Bec Henderson and Ondrêj Cink the ones to look out for in the elites.
Francesc Barber won’t be there with the rest of the team as he’s still recovering from some physical problems and Marta Cano gets the weekend off as disappointingly there is no UCI Junior Series event this weekend.
Don’t miss the weekend’s double feature of XC and DH!
