We spent the entire week dealing with rain, mud, and ever-changing conditions, making it one of the toughest races of the season so far. After two strong opening rounds, the team once again delivered a solid weekend in Austria, and despite the challenges, there were plenty of positives to take away.

We said it was coming. We could all feel it.

After battling changing conditions all week and searching for the right rhythm on a constantly evolving track, Lisa delivered when it mattered most.

A last-minute switch to intermediate tyres proved to be the perfect choice, giving her the grip she needed while allowing her to fully showcase her incredible skills on the demanding lower section of the track.

The result? Her first-ever Elite World Cup Top 5. What a race!

Raoul delivered another consistent performance in Leogang, continuing the strong momentum he’s built since the start of the season.

Race after race, he keeps proving how reliable and competitive he is, and that consistency is now paying off as he sits second overall in the Junior Men’s World Cup standings.

This weekend, a small mistake in the lower section of the track unfortunately cost him a shot at the podium. But despite that, he still secured a solid P5 finish and valuable points for the overall classification. He is currently standing P2 OVERALL !!!

Unfortunately, Leogang marked the end of the weekend at the qualification stage for Nathan, Mylann and Thomas.

Mylann pushed hard all weekend long in search of a place in the final. Maybe a little too hard. Two mistakes across his qualifying runs, including a heavy crash, ultimately cost him his chance to move on despite having the speed to be in the fight.

For Nathan and Thomas, it was simply one of those weekends where the feeling never quite came together. In constantly changing conditions, neither rider managed to find the rhythm needed to unlock their full potential.

It’s a frustrating outcome, but that’s part of racing. The positives are there, the work continues, and all three riders will be looking to bounce back in Switzerland next weekend.
