Three more medals for Great Britain at the UCI Mountain Bike World Championships! 🇬🇧

The Downhill finals delivered another brilliant day for Great Britain yesterday in Val di Sole, just two days after three silver medals in the Cross-Country. 🙌

On a steep and technical course, Britain added another silver and two bronzes to the medal haul:

🥈 Felix Griffiths: Junior Men’s Downhill, missing out on the rainbow jersey by just 0.45 seconds

🥉 Harriet Harnden: Elite Women’s Downhill

🥉 Jordan Williams: Elite Men’s Downhill, finishing just 0.702 seconds off the winning time

There were more impressive performances throughout the Downhill finals, with Sebastian Sumner, Elliot Smith and Tahnee Seagrave all securing top-10 finishes. 👏

A huge congratulations to every British rider who battled through qualification to earn their place in the finals 👏

Another great day on the mountain for Great Britain 💪

“Family ability is greater than individual disability” 👏

Despite her disability the pair have not allowed that define what Chloe can and can’t do and so have embarked on an epic journey 💪
