Tom Pidcock and Charlie Aldridge delivered a British one-two at the UCI Mountain Bike World Championships in Val di Sole, Italy. Starting from the fifth row, Pidcock gradually fought his way through the field before taking control of the race on his own in the closing laps. Behind him, Aldridge held firm all the way to the finish to claim another silver medal on the world stage. Pidcock once again underlined his dominance in cross-country, while his compatriot continues to establish himself among the leading riders in the discipline.
