France’s multitalented Pauline Ferrand-Prévot scorched to her fifth world mountain bike cross-country Olympic discipline title on Saturday, 12 August.
The 31-year-old took the lead early on lap two of the seven 3.5km circuits in Scotland’s Glentress Forest, having spent the first lap moving to the front.
Ferrand-Prévot and compatriot Loana Lecomte formed a front pair, but only briefly as the 2014 road race world champion quickly dropped her teammate.
The INEOS Grenadiers rider kept increasing her gap and finished more than a minute clear of Lecomte to secure her second rainbow jersey at these championships after takng the cross-country short track event on Thursday.
