Meanwhile, in the men's race, nine riders finished within a minute of each other, despite three and a half thousand meters of climbing.

ScottHOST
Um, before we get to the transfers, uh, ride of the week, Gravel World Championships.
ScottHOST
We don't normally touch gravel, but, uh, it's world championships, so I think it's fair enough, and Florian Vermeersch was in there.
ScottHOST
There was plenty of WorldTour riders.
ScottHOST
Connor Swift as well, fellow Yorkshireman of yours, uh, was there as well.
ScottHOST
... 'cause it was in Australia.
ScottHOST
But, uh, Mads Würtz Schmidt, former WorldTour rider, was in there as well.
ScottHOST
He was, like, the big favorite, and, uh, they got down to a group of four, Connor Swift, Florian Vermeersch, the defending champion, uh, Magnus Bak Larssyn, and, uh, Mads Würtz Schmidt.
ScottHOST
And then in the end, it came down to a sprint, Mads Würtz Schmidt- crashed towards the finish.
