The mountain bike World Cup finals in the downhill discipline are dominated by the English family Atherton. Rachel Windham won the U.S. contest for women. Her brother Gee dominated the match in the men. The 25-year-old Gee also earned the overall victory in the World Cup. Among the women, the overall victory in the World Cup downhill before the Frenchwoman Sabrina Jonnier. In the downhill, the differences are usually small. Rachel Atherton in Windham was 1.36 seconds faster than Tracy Moseley of Great Britain. Third place went to world champion Emmeline Ragot of France. She gave to 2.72 seconds. The victory in the World Cup was Sabrina Jonnier, two of the six races to win. Second was Emmeline Ragot, Tracy Moseley was third. Gee Atherton won by the men on the Wheelchair-downhill a double blow.

In the final standings of the World Cup took it for Greg Gee Atherton Lover. The figures were produced Atherton impressive.
