It was another masterclass from Max Alran and Commencal/Muc‑Off by Riding Addiction, who delivered a flawless weekend of racing to take his fourth UCI Downhill World Cup win of the season – and tighten his grip on the overall leader’s jersey.
The French Junior World Champion came into the weekend with form and confidence, qualifying fastest before throwing down a final run that would’ve made plenty of elites sit up and take notice. On a brutal, blown-out course, Alran showed precision and poise from top to bottom, crossing the line in 3:06 to take the win by just one second.
Another Win, Another Benchmark
The win cements Max's status as the rider to beat. Fast, smooth, and clinical under pressure, he’s now bagged four World Cup victories this season and leads the overall standings by 32 points heading into Mont‑Sainte‑Anne.
Eyes on the Finale
The UCI Downhill World Cup series now heads to Mont-Sainte-Anne, Canada for the season-closing round this weekend. Expect fireworks, full sends, and more pink-powered podiums as the Commencal/Muc‑Off crew look to close out the year in style.
