Precious metal at the cyclo-cross world championships for Corminboeuf and Graf

Yves Corminbouef and Jürg Graf win silver and bronze, the only medals for Switzerland, at the Masters World Cyclo-cross Championships in Gossau, Zurich. The strongest gold collectors come from France and England.

In the 30 to 34-year-old men's race, Yves Corminboeuf gets off to a fast start. However, the Frenchman Michael Szkolnik soon caught up and took the lead alone. However, the distance to his pursuers Corminboeuf and Graf remains close and so the hope is that they will join forces again. However, Szkolnik is strong enough to extend his narrow lead a little and wins the Masters World Championship title after just under 50 minutes of racing.

In the duel for the silver medal, former cyclo-cross pro Corminboeuf retains the upper hand. Masters Swiss champion Jürg Graf settles for third place after some shifting problems in the race.
In fourth and sixth place, Adrian Muri and Joël Niederberger are two more Swiss riders in the top ten.In the other age groups, the Swiss cyclists are no longer able to reach the medal ranks. Paul Graf is the closest with fourth place in the "Men 60 to 64 years" category. Defending champion Roger Honegger did not match his previous year's performance in the 50 to 54 age group and had to settle for fifth place.Ranking lists Cyclo-cross World Championships Masters, Gossau
