Race facts by uci.ch

 

In Vallnord, Andorra's first World Cup 4-Cross, Anneke Beerten continued to dominate the series. The Dutch rider, who never looked worried throughout the runs, was once again victorious and strengthens her lead in the overall World Cup standings. Her MS-Intense teammate, Mio Suemasa, took second place.

 

Among the men, Vallnord's spectacular race produced a great winner. A year after his brother Gee, it was Dan Atherton's turn to win a stage of the World Cup. Animal Commençal's British rider surpassed the American World Champion Brian Lopes. The German rider Guido Tschugg finished third to take the leader's jersey.
