Blum will start the World Cup season MTB / Day in Brazil this week
The new season of the World Cup starts in Far Brazil. This year, the first two of the total ten stages will take place here. The big start is expected this weekend in the center of MTB. The stages of Brazil are always among the most visited.
Arasha is distinguished by its red clay track and tropical landscapes that highlight it among the rest of the competitions in the World Cup calendar. Taking into account that the fifth of the World Cup points will be distributed in the first two rounds, the results in Brazil could be crucial at the end of the season in October.
The Arash World Cup calendar made his debut last year. The men’s elite XCO crossed the winner of the four -riding leader group in Spurt, the Danish cyclist Simon Andreasen. The Danish, who has changed the team, will be among the top favorites with Victor Korecki, Christopher Blevin and Charlie Oldridge.
Latvia’s best mountain biker Martins Blum, who remains loyal to the Ridley KMC unit, is also ready for the new season. In the opening of the season, Cēsis was disturbed by the flu, but he quickly recovered, with a race in Greece.
Last weekend, Martins won second place in the HC category XCC in Brazil, followed by eighth place on an equally high -scale XCO cross country. The results achieved in a very high competition allow you to hope for a successful start in the World Cup.
On Saturday at 7:25 pm Latvian time will take place in Stage 1 of the World Cup in XCC Cross, but a day later at 9:30 pm the XCO cross -country race is expected. They will be able to follow live on Eurosport.
