Emilie Siegenthaler wins the snow and mud battle in Châtel!

It is a little awkward to still focus on racing when the big goal of the year is behind us and everybody's head is already thinking about next season.
But the IXS European Cup in our favorite place Châtel left us no choice but to refocus.

An awesome track with the most brutal weather conditions of the year were the mix of challenge for the weekend.
Emilie Siegenthaler was unstoppable and took the win, going as fast as possible just to get back to the warm SCOTT11 tent again.

Nick Beer didn't mind the snow at the start, and was flying over the huge water puddles on the track, finishing in second place, having to give the win to german legend Markus Klausmann!

We now have one more race to go for this season: The end of season classic IXS Swiss Cup in Bellwald on 1./2. October.
