RACE COVERAGE | UCI Enduro World Cup Aletsch Arena, Switzerland

The WHOOP UCI Mountain Bike World Series continued this weekend in the third new venue of the 2024 series: the trails of the Aletsch Arena in Bellwald, Valais, Switzerland. Poor weather in Valais pushed the weekend’s action back by a day, so Sunday saw a double-header of brilliant action across the UCI Enduro and E-enduro World Cups, happening on the same day for the first time.

The UCI Enduro World Cup featured five stages totalling 54.5km, including 4,591m of descending and 1,583m of total elevation gain (including liaisons), while the UCI E-enduro event involved a gruelling nine stages totalling 76.3km course with 5,899m descent and 2,677m of total elevation gain (including liaisons).

Enduro race should be a mainstream coverage as mtb trails are similar relatable and products are marketable, frame, suspension, geometry etc.

TARMO!! Finally getting some screen time after 4th on the last stage. The man's absolutely on fire this season, watch out, he's young too! Great to see Finnish colours up there!

AWESOME COVERAGE, KEEP IT COMING! Really hope to see the Enduro series rise and thrive further, and this is a huge step in the right direction.

This was good coverage, we needed this for EDR.

Loved the animal question and the extended Talk with Jesse.

Keep polishing the end product, Enduro is such a great sport and deserves some LOVE .

This coverage is a step in the right direction at least from previous. The mid highlights interview was not needed, put that in a separate video.
The race definitely seems to be back to proper enduro, big mountain, natural, tight transitions without being marathon race

[eregan]

Great to see improved EDR coverage this season. More of this please!!

[leonemccallum]

What a race! Should be an Olympic sport!!

[lggigfe]

Good footage again and enjoyed the little Jesse interview clips and then from all of the top 3. Just would be great to see the highlights come out sooner after the races

Good job UCI, after 3 days we got the results finally ... it's 2024 I'm pretty sure you can do better than this.
MANY THANKS to the RIDERS for giving all their best competing and uploading their media content for the fans without days of waiting.

Harriet just seems hard as nails! Great win for her

[alecse]

So hard I don't understand why it has so little visibility. Big athletes in the place. 👍

[wonderwatch]

Jack is back, riding as a future world champion 👌🤘

[patrickmccormack]

Harnden always does good time a year, and this style track. Like, to see her win the title.

[bluecat]

Great coverage but it needs to come quicker!

[BrentBroome]

You're a legend, Josh! Double duty as presenter and racer this weekend. Thanks for the good coverage!

[WildMeff]

Loved this video, would’ve liked to see more Jack footage without the standings over it

[hudzo]

Jack plays it cool but could to see him open up a bit 💪🏼

[hectorhernandez]

The best part of this highlight package is no e-bikes.

What happened to races on other continents?

What happened to 2 day races?

What happened to coverage within a day of the final stage?
