Highlights - XCE Women's Race - 2015 UCI MTB World Championships / Vallnord, AND

A total of 16 women and 32 men qualified for the competition, where they raced in heats of four riders at a time, with the top-2 moving on to the next round, until there were only four left to race for the final. The 900 metre circuit saw the riders sprint to get the front position before a series of zig-zag turns that took them into a singletrack wooded section. A steep climb out of the woods onto the finishing straight left a final opportunity for a fast finisher to possibly move up before the line.

Switzerland dominated the women's heats, putting three of the four riders that made the final - Indergand, defending champion Kathrin Stirnemann and Ramona Forchini. Ingrid Boe Jacobsen (Norway) took the last spot.
