The women's grand final will be an international clash between Switzerland and Sweden. European champion Rissveds (SWE) starts the fastest. Jolanda Neff is hot on the Swede's heels, but takes the faster line and immediately pulls a few meters ahead. On the final climb, Neff, Rissveds and Stirnemann are suddenly close together again. The world champion from Sweden, Alexandra Engen, also closes in on the trio. In a thrilling sprint, Kathrin Stirnemann snatches victory ahead of Engen and Rissveds. "I've waited so long for this success and now I've done it. I'm over the moon that it was finally enough for me to win," says Stirnemann, who is still out of breath. Neff lacked strength in the final meters and had to settle for fourth place. "I ran out of steam at the end. It's okay, but it would be nice if I could hold on. But I know what I need to work on," explains Neff.

Linda Indergand and Nathalie Schneitter make it through to the small final. Indergand gets off to a fast start and takes the lead, followed by Nathalie Schneitter. The two Swiss racers tore the decisive hole in the technical forest passages and crossed the finish line a short time later in fifth and sixth place.

The starting phase of the big men's final is fiercely contested and characterized by several lead changes. Belgian Fabrice Mels came out on top and was the first to ride into the forest section, where he pulled away. Despite a riding error, the Belgian champion leaves nothing to chance. Behind him, Catriel Andres Soto (ARG) sprints into second place. Titouan Perrin Ganier (FRA) finished third, the German champion Simon Gegenheimer fourth.

Swiss champion Marcel Wildhaber won the men's small final. "I pulled myself together again for the small final. I had a bit of luck with Federspiel's slip, but I'm delighted with my first podium after two sixth places," says Wildhaber. Like Patrick Lüthi (SUI), European champion Daniel Federspiel made a mistake in the forest passage and dropped out of the decision for fifth place. A bitter disappointment for the Austrian, who is regarded as the best mountain bike sprinter. Stefan Peter and Sepp Freiburghaus have to bow out of the race early on.

Alexandra Engen continues to lead the overall women's classification. Thanks to her victory, however, Stirnemann is now within 10 points of the world champion. Jenny Rissveds is in third place, but already has a considerable gap.

In the men's race, the leading position also remains unchanged. Daniel Federspiel leads with a clear lead over Simon Gegenheimer and Miha Halzer (SLO). Marcel Wildhaber is eighth in the intermediate classification.
