José Mari Sánchez Conquest the Far West Race By Scott
The Andalusian cyclist has signed an unforgettable weekend in the UCI test of Bike Marathon that was broadcast live.
Despite not arriving in its best state due to a flu process, the corridor demonstrated his strength taking the victory in the general classification. He did it after imposing himself with authority in the first stage and ensuring a second place in the second, thus maintaining his advantage in the sum of times.
Absolute domain in the first stage
From the first day, José Mari made it clear that he was willing to fight for victory. On a day marked by a strong rhythm from the beginning, the Andalusian knew how to control the attacks and always stay in the lead. With intelligence and power, he responded to each attempt to escape until the favorite group reduced to only three runners: Pawel Bernas, Vinzent Dorn and himself.
At the key moment, when he felt he had the race under control, he launched a definitive attack that no one could follow. With an unstoppable rhythm, he opened a sufficient advantage to cross the solo goal and win the first stage with solvency.
An epic duel in the second stage
The rains of the previous day turned the second stage into an even greater challenge, with mud sections that demanded an extra technique and resistance. The race was soon reduced to a face to face between José Mari and Vinzent Dorn, in a constant struggle for the first position.
Finally, it was the German cyclist who managed to impose himself on this second day, taking a slight advantage in the final kilometers. However, José Mari Sánchez knew how to manage his advantage in the general, ensuring a second position that allowed him to proclaim himself absolute champion of the Far West Race By Scott.
A victory with great impact
The triumph of José Mari Sánchez in this prestigious test has had a great impact, partly thanks to the live broadcast of both stages, which allowed fans to follow the action in real time.
With this victory, the Andalusian cyclist reaffirms his great state and makes it clear that he is one of the names to be followed in the long distance MTB. Congratulations, José Mari!
