Anina Hutter and Mike Huter both compete in the junior categories and have almost identical names. But that's where the similarities end. Different sports, different training, different status with Swiss Cycling and a different approach to the elite category.

Mike is in his last year as a junior and is currently in top form. After a wild but fast ride in Poland, he crashed in the last corner. Last weekend in Leogang, however, it was enough for third place - the first World Cup podium for Mike.

The situation is somewhat different for Anina. While she was still able to ride in the U19 category last year, she is now one of the youngest in the U23. The pace has increased, the number of laps has increased and the rankings have automatically slipped back a little. But she also managed a sensational third place at the European Championships a few weeks ago.

Both know Val di Sole and its challenges. Both have set themselves high goals. But it's not the big prize money, that much is already clear.
