Downhill: close battles The final round of the 2010 Mountain Bike World Cup concluded with the crowd favourite: downhill. The riders did not disappoint, with tight races in both the men’s and women’s events. Rachel Atherton (Commencal) took the women’s win, while Sabrina Jonnier (Maxxis-Rocky Mountain) easily won her fifth overall title. Jonnier, who finished eighth in the Final, took the title with 1130 points, followed by World Champion Emmeline Ragot (Suspension Center) at 1045 and Tracy Moseley (Trek World Racing) with 909. The men’s overall competition was down to two riders – Gee Atherton (Commencal) and Greg Minnaar (Santa Cruz Syndicate). Atherton sealed the title by winning the event; only 37 hundredths of a second in front of Minnaar. Atherton took the title with 1229 points to Minnaar’s 1185. Sam Blenkinsop (Lapierre International) finished third in the 2010 series with 864 points. Next stop World Championships From the state of New York, the world’s best athletes will now travel to Mont-Saint-Anne, Canada, for the UCI Mountain Bike and Trials World Championships.
