World Cup Rd1: Maribor downhill RESULTS!

You've no doubt heard already but Sam Hill took first place by over 3 seconds... 100% still the man to beat in World Cup downhill.

Second place was a bit more of a suprise with French man Jullien Camellini in second, then Peaty in third.

Sabrina Jonnier took the top spot for the ladies, with Rachel Atherton in second and Emeline Ragot in third. Definitely the 3 riders most people would have put their money on... and more GREAT riding from Rach.

The rest of the results are pretty interesting with some great results and some maybe a bit lower than you'd expect... Scan through 'em
