The World Cup season finals at La Bresse left Maxxis’ sponsored riders holding eight spots in the men’s DH overall top ten as well as the top two overall men’s XCO spots. Maxxis’ riders took five top ten spots in men’s DH and three in men’s XCO at the La Bresse races, the last before next week’s World Championships.
Overcoming a muddy, rocky course, Nino Schurter of Scott-SRAM MTB Racing took first place in both the weekend’s race and overall men’s XCO standings. Corendon-Circus rider Mathieu Van der Poel took second place overall for the season, while Gerhard Kerschbaumer of Torpado Gabogas earned second place for the day and fifth overall.
