Di Pasquale sets a new record at the Glacier Bike Downhill

At the Glacier Bike Downhill in Saas-Fee, Frenchman Charly Di Pasquale wins the race with an altitude difference of 1700 meters in record time against a field of 142 athletes. He needed 7.31 minutes to complete the course.

After the mass start, it was time for the 139 bikers and the 3 female bikers to set off. The bikes were placed in advance and had to be reached as quickly as possible. The first part of the race led over the Fee Glacier, down to the steep panoramic slope. Up to the Morenia area, five bikers led the way, and Frenchman Charly was able to maneuver his way to the front after an opponent fell. From then on, he led the race at a distance, still pursued by a small group, which took up the chase in vain. Charly Di Pasquale was able to save a six-second lead over last year's winner Bernhard Rösch by the finish line.
