After the training runs could still take place in rather dry conditions, the downhill course in Willingen surprised the riders on Sunday with completely different conditions. It was wet and muddy and definitely a real challenge for everyone at the start.

At the Lazer Junior Trophy, the youngsters (2010-2016) and very youngsters (2016-2021) were able to put their skills to the test. It was raining, but they did it anyway. Respect!

In the afternoon, the youngsters were brought on stage for the award ceremony. A proud moment for the kids, but also for the parents, who gathered in large numbers in front of the festival stage.

The Scott Enduro was also a real challenge due to the rain. Rebecca Baraona secured the women's podium with a fantastic time of 14:16.53. Silja Geck had put on rain tyres the evening before the race, but in the end it was only enough for second place, closely followed by Chloe Taylor in third place.
