WINS JUNIOR CROSS-COUNTRY RACE AT MONT-SAINTE-ANNE WORLD
CUP
Alexandre Vialle comes in third place in the
men’s junior race
(Mont-Sainte-Anne, QC – July 3, 2011) The junior
cross-country races and the elite downhill races were
the highlight of today’s programme at the 2011
Mountain Bike UCI World Cup action in Mont-Sainte-Anne,
QC. Lauren Rosser, the junior downhill World Champion,
showed that she is a complete, versatile athlete by
winning the women’s junior race in what was a
Canadian podium-sweep.
Motivated by the Canadian success from yesterday’s
action, young Canadian riders competed with the momentum
of excellence, placing a total of four Canadians on
the podium in junior cross-country races, as well as
posting excellent downhill performances.
In the women cross country races, Canadians fared well
with a Canadian trio on the podium. Lauren Ross, who
won in the junior downhill race at the UCI Mountain
Bike World Championships last year, has won today’s
cross-country race. Rosser was followed by Canadian
teammates Andréanne Lanthier-Nadeau and Frédérique
Trudel in second and third.
In the men’s races, Alexandre Vialle surprised
many by climbing on the third place of the podium. Vialle
posted a time of 1:11:05, showing a time deficit of
1: 55 behind the winning time realized ??by the Swiss
cyclist Andri Frischknecht riding for the Scott Swisspower
cycling team.
In the Elite Downhill races, Canadian Steve Smith racing
for DeVinci Global placed seventh. The vice-world champion
finished seventh at 6 seconds behind the winner, American
Aaron Gwin. In the women’s race, the top Canadian
rides was none other than Micaela Gatto, the reigning
Canadian champion, who finished in tenth place.
