Victory for Marion Fromberger at the UCI Eliminator World Cup in Aalen

Our athlete Marion Fromberger impressively secured victory at the UCI Eliminator World Cup in Aalen on Saturday - and thus takes the lead in the overall World Cup. An outstanding race, full of speed, tactics and precision with the corratec Revo Bow in front of 8,000-10,000 spectators - exactly what the Eliminator is all about. We congratulate her and the whole MTB racing team from the bottom of our hearts!

Steep starts and fast edges: The urban format in Aalen's city center, with jumps over the market fountain and high speed, demanded full concentration - with a long final sprint after the last obstacle.

Home advantage used: Marion, local hero and sports ambassador for Aalen, showed racing experience, technical riding confidence and strong willpower - a perfect mix for success.

Strong competition from home and abroad: racers such as Didi de Vries (NED) and Mariia Sukhopalova (UKR) were among the front runners. Nevertheless, Marion came out on top in the final sprint.

With her victory in Aalen, Marion leads the overall women's standings with an impressive 300 points - ahead of Didi de Vries with 176 and Mariia Sukhopalova with 155 points. An emotional and important milestone.
