Tom Pidcock fourth after crash as Nino Schurter takes 10th title at UCI Mountain Bike World Championships
Veteran Swiss rider Nino Schurter made his experience count in Les Gets, winning the men's cross-country title at the UCI Mountain Bike World Championships thanks to a well-judged move on the final descent. The 36-year-old fended off the advances of Spain's David Valero Serrano for most of the final lap, before attacking in the last 500 metres and crossing the line with room to spare. A hard-fought race from Italy's Luca Braidot brought him home 29 seconds behind Schurter, delivering him a well-earned bronze medal.
