"PFP", 28, started alone in the lead from the first climb proposed at the start of the race and gradually increased his lead to secure a third world title after 2015 in Vallnord in Andorra and 2019 at Mont Sainte-Anne in Quebec, with nearly three minutes ahead of its runner-up, the Italian Lechner.
