Mountain bikers Frei and Stošek win gold at the European Gravel Championships
Sina Frei from Switzerland dominated the 102-kilometre race, attacking on the second and final lap and gradually extending her lead. Frei reached the finish line around 1:30 minutes ahead of the Italians Silvia Persico and Alice Maria Arzuffi. The best German is Maria Rosa Kloser, who narrowly beats Switzerland's Ginia Caluori. Sabine Sommer was the fastest Austrian in ninth place.
Sina Frei makes the most of her late season form and becomes European Gravel Champion.
In the men's race, Martin Stošek made the difference in the last of three laps when he broke away from the leading group. The Czech rode to a considerable lead of 3:44 minutes over the 153-kilometer course. Behind Stošek, Toby Perry (Great Britain) and Jenno Berckmoes (Belgium) crossed the finish line to complete the podium. Paul Voss from Germany rode to fourth place, Simon Pellaud was the best Swiss rider in seventh place.
Martin Stošek wins gravel gold at the European Championships by a considerable margin.
