The Elite racers who qualified earlier in the day went back against the clock to determine who would progress to the finals. In the women’s competition, Vali Höll had a perfect day of racing in France, following up her fastest qualifier time with another fastest time in the semi-finals. Myriam Nicole finished in second place, just 1.29 seconds behind Höll, and is eager to secure a win on home soil. Tahnee Seagrave finished in third place, just 0.13 seconds ahead of Les Gets expert Monika Hrastnik.
In the men’s competition, Dakotah Norton mirrored Höll’s success by taking wins in both qualifying and semi-finals. He is inching closer to a first World Cup win and seeking redemption for narrowly missing out in Val di Sole. Amaury Pierron finished 1.395 seconds behind Norton in second place for the day, while Loic Bruni came in third, the only other rider within three seconds of Norton.
The results for the Elite Women were as follows: Myriam Nicole was victorious with a time of 4:02.992 seconds, while Tahnee Seagrave came in second place with a time of 4:03.222 seconds and Vali Holl finished third with a time of 4:03.776 seconds. Mille Johnset finished fourth with a time of 4:03
